    Between losing touch with reality and shaping the world: Alexandra Schauer\u27s diagnosis of late modern socialization and its significance for media education

    No full text
    In seinem Beitrag rezensiert Christian Filks Alexandra Schauers Gesellschaftsdiagnose Mensch ohne Welt und reflektiert auf deren Relevanz für die Medienbildung(-sforschung). Schauer rekonstruiert den spätmodernen Weltverlust als Dreifachkrise: die Fragmentierung der Zeitstruktur (vom linearen Fortschritt zum „rasenden Stillstand“), die Transformation zur postfaktischen Öffentlichkeit und die Privatisierung öffentlicher Räume. Methodisch folgt sie dem konstellativen Verfahren der Frankfurter Schule und verbindet Marx‘sche Kapitalismuskritik mit Hannah Arendts Weltbegriff. Filk zeigt, wie diese Diagnose medienbildungstheoretische Debatten bereichert: Digitale Medienumgebungen verstärken die diagnostizierte Zeit- und Aufmerksamkeitsfragmentierung, algorithmische Filterung reproduziert den Verblendungszusammenhang der Kulturindustrie, und kommerzielle Plattformen fungieren als digitale Pseudoöffentlichkeiten. Die Analyse weist über technische Medienkompetenz hinaus und fordert kritische Medienbildung als demokratische Kulturtechnik. Schauers Weltverlust-Diagnose eröffnet, so das Fazit von Christian Filk, neue Perspektiven für die Konzeptualisierung von Subjektkonstitution und gesellschaftlicher Teilhabe in digitalen Kontexten.In his article, Christian Filks reviews Alexandra Schauer‘s social diagnosis Mensch ohne Welt („People Without a World“) and reflects on its relevance for media education (research). Schauer reconstructs late modernity\u27s loss of the world as a triple crisis: the fragmentation of the structure of time (from linear progress to „racing standstill“), the transformation to a post-factual public sphere, and the privatization of public spaces. Methodologically, she follows the constellative approach of the Frankfurt School and combines Marx‘s critique of capitalism with Hannah Arendt‘s concept of the world. Filk shows how this diagnosis enriches debates on media education theory: digital media environments reinforce the diagnosed fragmentation of time and attention, algorithmic filtering reproduces the culture industry‘s web of delusion, and commercial platforms function as digital pseudo-public spheres. The analysis goes beyond technical media literacy and calls for critical media education as a democratic cultural technique. Christian Filk concludes that Schauer‘s diagnosis of a loss of world opens up new perspectives for conceptualizing subject constitution and social participation in digital contexts

    Stages for the More Sustainable Farm

    Currently, agricultural farm units are faced with a double and most times contradictory challenge, in order to be successful: on the one hand the invested capital has to be profitable and the economic performance has to be maximised. On the other hand, given the socio-environmental situation, it is necessary to preserve and to protect the environment and natural resources. Given the potential conflict of the two aims, since the satisfaction of one implies the underperformance of the other (and vice versa), the question then is: which is the solution to choose? We intend, in this work, to formulate a farm plan with the purpose of reconciling the criteria of environmental sustainability with that of economic competitiveness. For this achievement we proceed to the comparative study of sustainability of different groups of farms identified in the study area (first evaluation cycle) through MESMIS (“Marco para la Evaluación de Sistemas de Manejo de Recursos Naturales Mediante Indicadores de Sustentabilidad” - Framework for Evaluation of Natural-Resource Systems Handling through Sustainability Indicators) methodology, that allowed to select the more sustainable group of farms. Based on the found potentialities and weakness on these production systems, we stepped to the planning of a production unit of bovine meat, which obeys simultaneously to economic and environmental objectives, using Multicriteria Decision. We finished the work with the sustainability evaluation between groups of farms identified previously and the planned farms (second evaluation cycle), based, again, in the MESMIS methodology, to confirm (or not) the greatest sustainability of the last ones. Analyses of the results allow us to confirm the greatest relative sustainability of the planned farm, for the diverse traced scenarios.Decision taking, planning, sustainability, Environmental Economics and Policy, Farm Management,

    Reescrita de si pelo outro: identidade portuguesa e paródia em Deus-dará, de Alexandra Lucas Coelho / Rewriting oneself through the other: Portuguese identity and parody in Deus-dará, by Alexandra Lucas Coelho

    No full text
    Resumo: O artigo aponta o modo como o romance Deus-dará de Alexandra Lucas Coelho, escritora portuguesa contemporânea, pode ser compreendido como um exercício de renegociação da identidade portuguesa em relação a questões referentes à colonização no Brasil. Mais do que isso, problematiza-se como, por meio da estratégia da paródia no texto ficcional, a autora consegue expressar uma necessidade e possibilidade de se redefinir pelo outro em um movimento contrário ao do discurso colonial – o que também ocorre em suas entrevistas e em suas narrativas de viagens, tais como em Vai, Brasil e Cinco Voltas na Bahia e um beijo para Caetano Veloso. Palavras-chave: identidade portuguesa; paródia; pós-modernismo; escrita portuguesa contemporânea; Alexandra Lucas Coelho. Abstract: The article observes how the novel Deus-dará, by Alexandra Lucas Coelho, a Portuguese contemporary writer consists in an exercise of renegotiation for the Portuguese identity in relation to issues that refer to the colonization process in Brazil. Moreover, this text seeks to show how parody as a fictional literary strategy helps the author in expressing a necessity and a possibility of redefining oneself through the other, in a direction that goes in the opposite way of the colonial speech. This necessity and this possibility also appear in the author’s interviews and travel books, such as Vai, Brasil and Cinco Voltas na Bahia e um beijo para Caetano Veloso, which will also be mentioned in this article.Keywords: Portuguese identity; parody; post-modernism; Portuguese contemporary writing; Alexandra Lucas Coelho

    Athaliah and Alexandra: Gender and Queenship in Josephus [Author Accepted Manuscript]

    No full text
    Athaliah and Alexandra were the only two women to rule as queens of Judah/Judaea in their own right and both women’s reigns are reported in Josephus’ writings. Despite their uniqueness, however, Athaliah and Alexandra are rarely compared in scholarship; the former is usually dismissed, and focus centred on the latter. This article contends that there are historical similarities between the two, but literary differences. Josephus could have referred to Athaliah or used elements of her portrayal in his presentation of Alexandra but does not, creating the impression that Alexandra was completely different to her predecessor. It may be instructive, therefore, to consider why Josephus literarily isolates the queens and what this means for his interpretation of Alexandra
