Thinking with J. Z. Smith - - Bog - Equinox Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Thinking with J. Z. Smith - - Bog - Equinox Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

In his bio-bibliographical essay, J. Z. Smith wrote that he was fond of the expression "when the chips are down" in the sense of all being said and done. With his passing in December 2017, the phrase has gained an additional layer of sad finality-the chips are really down. Scholarship is not poker, however, which means that these chips not only can but in fact should be picked up and circulated. Thinking with J. Z. Smith brings together the contributions of scholars who do exactly that by considering theoretical and methodological issues central to J. Z. Smith''s oeuvre in the context of their own research. Through analyses of Smith''s own work as well as applications of his concerns to new situations, historic periods, and regions, the contributors to this volume test the adequacy and applicability of Smith''s ideas and provide an indirect assessment of his influence and legacy in the field of religious studies.

Arithmetic Of Z-numbers, The: Theory And Applications - Oleg H Huseynov - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Arithmetic Of Z-numbers, The: Theory And Applications - Oleg H Huseynov - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Real-world information is imperfect and is usually described in natural language (NL). Moreover, this information is often partially reliable and a degree of reliability is also expressed in NL. In view of this, the concept of a Z -number is a more adequate concept for the description of real-world information. The main critical problem that naturally arises in processing Z -numbers-based information is the computation with Z -numbers. Nowadays, there is no arithmetic of Z -numbers suggested in existing literature. This book is the first to present a comprehensive and self-contained theory of Z -arithmetic and its applications. Many of the concepts and techniques described in the book, with carefully worked-out examples, are original and appear in the literature for the first time. The book will be helpful for professionals, academics, managers and graduate students in fuzzy logic, decision sciences, artificial intelligence, mathematical economics, and computational economics.

Market Justice - Brent Z. Kaup - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Market Justice - Brent Z. Kaup - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Market Justice explores the challenges for the new global left as it seeks to construct alternative means of societal organization. Focusing on Bolivia, Brent Z. Kaup examines a testing ground of neoliberal and counter-neoliberal policies and an exemplar of bottom-up globalization. Kaup argues that radical shifts towards and away from free market economic trajectories are not merely shaped by battles between transnational actors and local populations, but also by conflicts between competing domestic elites and the ability of the oppressed to overcome traditional class divides. Further, the author asserts that struggles against free markets are not evidence of opposition to globalization or transnational corporations. They should instead be understood as struggles over the forms of global integration and who benefits from them.

Mobile Subjects - Aren Z. Aizura - Bog - Duke University Press - Plusbog.dk

Mobile Subjects - Aren Z. Aizura - Bog - Duke University Press - Plusbog.dk

The first famous transgender person in the United States, Christine Jorgensen, traveled to Denmark for gender reassignment surgery in 1952. Jorgensen became famous during the ascent of postwar dreams about the possibilities for technology to transform humanity and the world. In Mobile Subjects Aren Z. Aizura examines transgender narratives within global health and tourism economies from 1952 to the present. Drawing on an archive of trans memoirs and documentaries as well as ethnographic fieldwork with trans people obtaining gender reassignment surgery in Thailand, Aizura maps the uneven use of medical protocols to show how national and regional health care systems and labor economies contribute to and limit transnational mobility. Aizura positions transgender travel as a form of biomedical tourism, examining how understandings of race, gender, and aesthetics shape global cosmetic surgery cultures and how economic and racially stratified marketing and care work create the ideal transgender subject as an implicitly white, global citizen. In so doing, he shows how understandings of travel and mobility depend on the historical architectures of colonialism and contemporary patterns of global consumption and labor.

Visual Occupations - Gil Z. Hochberg - Bog - Duke University Press - Plusbog.dk

Visual Occupations - Gil Z. Hochberg - Bog - Duke University Press - Plusbog.dk

In Visual Occupations Gil Z. Hochberg shows how the Israeli Occupation of Palestine is driven by the unequal access to visual rights, or the right to control what can be seen, how, and from which position. Israel maintains this unequal balance by erasing the history and denying the existence of Palestinians, and by carefully concealing its own militarization. Israeli surveillance of Palestinians, combined with the militarized gaze of Israeli soldiers at places like roadside checkpoints, also serve as tools of dominance. Hochberg analyzes various works by Palestinian and Israeli artists, among them Elia Suleiman, Rula Halawani, Sharif Waked, Ari Folman, and Larry Abramson, whose films, art, and photography challenge the inequity of visual rights by altering, queering, and manipulating dominant modes of representing the conflict. These artists'' creation of new ways of seeing—such as the refusal of Palestinian filmmakers and photographers to show Palestinian suffering or the Israeli artists'' exposure of state manipulated Israeli blindness —offers a crucial gateway, Hochberg suggests, for overcoming and undoing Israel''s militarized dominance and political oppression of Palestinians.

Indie - Michael Z. Newman - Bog - Columbia University Press - Plusbog.dk

Indie - Michael Z. Newman - Bog - Columbia University Press - Plusbog.dk

America's independent films often seem to defy classification. Their strategies of storytelling and representation range from raw, no-budget projects to more polished releases of Hollywood's "specialty" divisions. Yet understanding American indies involves more than just considering films. Filmmakers, distributors, exhibitors, festivals, critics, and audiences all shape the art's identity, which is always understood in relation to the Hollywood mainstream. By locating the American indie film in the historical context of the "Sundance-Miramax" era (the mid-1980s to the end of the 2000s), Michael Z. Newman considers indie cinema as an alternative American film culture. His work isolates patterns of character and realism, formal play, and oppositionality and the functions of the festivals, art houses, and critical media promoting them. He also accounts for the power of audiences to identify indie films in distinction to mainstream Hollywood and to seek socially emblematic characters and playful form in their narratives. Analyzing films such as Welcome to the Dollhouse (1996), Lost in Translation (2003), Pulp Fiction (1994), and Juno (2007), along with the work of Nicole Holofcener, Jim Jarmusch, John Sayles, Steven Soderbergh, and the Coen brothers, Newman investigates the conventions that cast indies as culturally legitimate works of art. He binds these diverse works together within a cluster of distinct viewing strategies and invites a reevaluation of the difference of independent cinema and its relationship to class and taste culture.
