Trump is bite-sized. What we know about Trump isn't his speeches, but short lines you can fit in image macros. The dominating themes in Trump discussions are 'build a wall' and 'grab by the pussy'.

I recently read this author's "Cinderella" books from Egypt and Korea, and I read them because they're illustrated by Ruth Heller. But I read (I think thanks to Goodreads' friend Chandra) that the illustrations in this version are even better so I decided to give this book a try. Even though I haven't been in a fairy tale mood I did enjoy the other two books, and enjoyed the variations on the Cinderella story and the notes in the back that show its presence in various cultures.

Summary:
This is a cultural book about a girl named Ammi and her bindi that she has on her forehead. Ammi is a mother I believe and her son is asking a bunch of questions about the bindi that Ammi is wearing. The story tells you what a bindi is and what it means to wear it. It also talks a little about how others view it as just a spot or something weird on their head, but to them it is something much more special.

"Trying to understand major economic events by looking only at data on changes in economic aggregates, such as gross domestic product, wage rates, interest rates, and tax rates, runs the risk of missing the underlying motivations for change. Doing so is like trying to understand a religious awakening by looking at the cost of printing religious tracts."

"We need to incorporate the contagion of narratives into economic theory. Otherwise, we remain blind to a very real, very palpable, very important mechanism for economic change, as well as a crucial element for economic forecasting. If we do not understand the epidemics of popular narratives, we do not fully understand changes in the economy and in economic behavior."

This was a good book, but I had trouble finishing it. The reasons for that, however, are mostly personal. I'm a black feminist, and most of this book is focused on educating white feminists on issues they may not typically consider feminist or associate with the feminist movement - such as housing, food, and education. Kendall makes the argument that all these needs are feminist causes that need addressing, especially in poor communities/hoods where survival is paramount. I agree with almost eve ...more

"Active writing should not involve saying things you already understand and know, but instead let you think new things."

"You truly engage readers in the introduction when you convince them that it's worth their time to keep reading, which means making a variety of credible promises (implicit and explicit) about both the value of the problem you will solve (usually explicit: "We have an inadequate or limited theory of early modern sexuality"), your professional credibility for addressing that problem (both explicit and implicit: you show the reader that you understand and know the field in which the problem takes place), and, ideally, by writing sentences or laying out ideas in ways that are rhetorically, rhythmically, or lexically appealing (always implicit). By having, in other words, some kind of style."

"We are all burnt by ultraviolet rays. We all contain water in about the same ratio as Earth does, and salt water in the same ratio that the oceans do. We are poems about the hyperobject Earth."

"The strategy of this book, then, is to awaken us from the dream that the world is about to end, because action on Earth (the real Earth) depends on it. The end of the world has already occurred. We can be uncannily precise about the date on which the world ended. Convenience is not readily associated with historiography, nor indeed with geological time. But in this case, it is uncannily clear. It was April 1784, when James Watt patented the steam engine, an act that commenced the depositing of carbon in Earth's crust-namely, the inception of humanity as a geophysical force on a planetary scale."

"The history of environmental lawmaking suggests that people are best able to change their ways when they find two things at once in nature: something to fear, a threat they must avoid, and also something to love, a quality they can admire or respect, and which they can do their best to honor. The first impulse, of fear, can be rendered in purely human-centered terms, as a matter of avoiding environmental crisis. The second impulse, of love, engages animist intuitions and carries us toward post-humanism, which is perhaps just another name for an enriched humanism. Either impulse can stay the human hand, but the first stops it just short of being burnt or broken. The second keeps the hand poised, extended in greeting or in an offer of peace. This gesture is the beginning of collaboration, among people but also beyond us, in building our next home."

Intersectionality, by Collins and Bilge

Just finished this introduction to the study and the doing of intersectionality, ie, the way things are interwoven, overlapping, interrelated.

As someone who thinks about religion, I immediately thought of the embeddedness of religion. Using the analogy of "religion" being the bricked footpath upon which we walk (that would make a good poem!), the diverse bricks are like the diversity within religions and the people who practice them.

"These ways we have to settle. Moving house. I hate packing: collecting myself up, pulling myself apart. Stripping the body of the house: the walls, the floors, the shelves. Then I arrive, an empty house. It looks like a shell. How I love unpacking. Taking things out, putting things around, arranging myself all over the walls. I move around, trying to distribute myself evenly around the rooms. I concentrate on the kitchen. The familiar smell of spices fills the air. I allow the cumin to spill, and then gather it up again. I feel flung back somewhere else. I am never sure where the smell of spices takes me, as it had followed me everywhere. Each smell that gathers returns me somewhere; I am not always sure where that somewhere is. Sometimes the return is welcome, sometimes not. Sometimes it is tears or laughter that makes me realize that I have been pulled to another place and another time. Such memories can involve a recognition of how one's body already feels, coming after the event. The surprise when we find ourselves moved in this way or that. So we ask the question, later, and it often seems too late: what is it that has led me away from the present, to another place and another time? How is it that I have arrived here or there?"

"Away from home, my partner and I are on holiday on a resort on an island. Mealtimes bring everyone together. We enter the dining room, where we face many tables places alongside each other... I face what seems like a shocking image. In front of me, on the tables, couples are seated. Table after table, couple after couple, taking the same form: one many sitting by one woman around a 'round table,' facing each other 'over' the table... I am shocked by the sheer force of the regularity of that which is familiar: how each table presents the same form of sociality as the form of the heterosexual couple. How is it possible, with all that is possible, that the same form is repeated again and again? How does the openness of the future get closed down into so little in the present?"

Good question. Benedict Anderson (like many of his peers) argues for the 'modernist' school which asserts that nationalism is a new phenomenon tied toGood question. Benedict Anderson (like many of his peers) argues for the 'modernist' school which asserts that nationalism is a new phenomenon tied to modernity. There has been a lot of new research on nationalism that has attempted to challenge this, writers like Anthony Smith and Adrian Hastings come to mind, who argue that premodern ppl also had senses of peoplehood. ...more

That said, none of these works have made an impact the way Imagined Communities has, and like the other responders have said, Imagined Communities really did offer new ways to think about nationalism. As for Smith, he makes it clear that his research is meant to augment, not replace the modernist perspective. (less)

În short: in economics nothing works in the long run. Keynesianism worked marvelously in the 50s an 70s until it didn't. Monetarism took the central stage until it was busted by the financial crises. Skidelsky gives a big blow to the sacred cows of austerity and inflation targeting and will probably upset many IMF economists. Governments need to pump investment (by borrowing whenever necessary) and not rely on financial market self-regulation too much. All in one it is not an easy reading. But w ...more
