Hammer And Tickle: The Story Of Communism. A Political System Almost Laughed Out Of Existence - Ben Lewis

This often enjoyable but flat-footed compilation and study of jokes from the Soviet bloc has a hard time justifying its existence. Journalist and documentarian Lewis (who made a film of the same title for the BBC) started by imagining Communist jokes as a subversive critique that undermined the totalitarian state, but concludes that they were a politically irrelevant distraction. He looks to them as a window into Communist society, but discovers that most probably they originated long before Lenin appeared. If truth be told, Communist jokes are often pretty lame. For every clever one-liner—capitalism is the exploitation of man by man, while communism is the exact opposite—Lewis unearths 10 clunkers like, Why are the East Berliners dumber than the East Friesians? They built a wall and placed themselves on the wrong side. Lewis's explications of jokes are more interesting than the jokes, as are his fencing sessions with unapologetic ex-Communist apparatchiks and with his artist girlfriend, a humorless nostalgist for East Germany. The rueful punch line Lewis leaves us with, almost despite himself, is that Communism was no laughing matter. Photos. (Aug.)

From The Closet To The Courtroom: Five Lgbt Rights Lawsuits That Have Changed Our Nation (queer Action/queer Ideas) - Michael Bronski And Carlos A. Ball

Ball (The Morality of Gay Rights), Rutgers professor of law, offers an in-depth analysis of the five lawsuits that have moved America closer to full legal equality for LGBT people. The groundbreaking legal decisions include Nabozny v. Podlesny (1996), in which a seventh-grader received such brutal bullying and beatings that he required abdominal surgery successfully sued his school for discrimination in refusing to protect him, after they claimed the brutal treatment was his fault because he was openly gay, and Romer v. Evans (also 1996), in which a lesbian policewoman's fellow officers harassed her and ignored her calls for backup in dangerous situations. Ball does an excellent job of showcasing the stories of the lawyers, activists, and defendants involved. He points out that although these cases were essential to get the process started, until marriage equality is protected under federal law and don't ask, don't tell is repealed, there is yet a long way to go. The tone of this book sets it apart from similar studies; Ball approaches his subject with vigor and sensitivity and makes a poignant plea for justice. (June)

The Tapestry Of The Law: Scotland. Legal Culture And Legal Theory (law And Philosophy Library) - E. Attwooll

` ... a comprehensive survey of trends in twentieth-century jurisprudence ... The Tapestry of Law is clearly intended for a general audience, and on that level it deserves great success. This is an ideal book to offer to anyone curious about the current concerns of English-speaking philosophers of law. Overall, however, the risks Attwooll has taken by writing this sort of book have been fairly taken, and the result is an enjoyable read with plenty of substance.'

Simbolismo En El Arte Hindъ. De La Experiencia Estйtica A La Experiencia Mнstica (coleccion Taxila) (spanish Edition) - Vicente Merlo

El arte hindъ es considerado tradicionalmente como un camino de realizaciуn. La experiencia estйtica pura supone un йxtasis que anticipa la realizaciуn y la plenitud espiritual. El sнmbolo (analizado aquн sobre todo en la arquitectura y la escultura) se muestra como el modo privilegiado de representar y revelar lo Sagrado. La contemplaciуn del sнmbolo artнstico permite la profundizaciуn en niveles de conciencia y de la realidad hasta acceder a la identificaciуn con el objeto contemplado. La contemplaciуn que el artista debe haber ejercitado sobre el aspecto de la realidad que trata de expresar a travйs de su creaciуn ha de ser igualmente practicada por aquel que accede al goce estйtico mediante la contemplaciуn de la obra de arte. De ahн que arte sea considerado como un yoga (shilpa-yoga) y la meditaciуn (dhyana) su herramienta principal
