 Stijn De Cauwer, "Critical Theory at a Crossroads: Conversations on Resistance in Times of Crisis" English | ISBN: 0231186789 | 2018 | 256 pages | EPUB | 1231 KB We are living in an age of crisis―or an age in which everything is labeled a crisis. Financial, debt, and refugee "crises" have erupted. The word has also been applied to the Arab Spring and its aftermath, Brexit, the 2016 U.S. election, and many other international events. Yet the term has contradictory political and strategic meanings for those challenging power structures and those seeking to preserve them. For critics of the status quo, can the rhetoric of crisis be used to foment urgency around issues like climate change and financialization, or does framing a situation as a "crisis" play into the hands of the existing political order, which then seeks to tighten the leash by creating a state of emergency?  Mukta Arya, "Criss Cross: A Medley of Thoughts" English | ISBN: 1543757170 | 2020 | 74 pages | EPUB | 193 KB Criss-cross is a collection of thoughts that came into the author's mind while introspecting and pondering about life, while sitting in her balcony in Singapore.

Creatures of Politics: Media, Message, and the American Presidency By Michael Lempert, Michael Silverstein 2012 | 263 Pages | ISBN: 0253007453 | PDF | 6 MB It's a common complaint that a presidential candidate's style matters more than substance and that the issues have been eclipsed by mass-media-fueled obsession with a candidate's every slip, gaffe, and peccadillo. This book explores political communication in American presidential politics, focusing on what political insiders call "message." Message, Michael Lempert and Michael Silverstein argue, is not simply an individual's positions on the issues but the craft used to fashion the creature the public sees as the candidate. Lempert and Silverstein examine some of the revelatory moments in debates, political ads, interviews, speeches, and talk shows to explain how these political creations come to have a life of their own. From the pandering "Flip-Flopper" to the self-reliant "Maverick," the authors demonstrate how these figures are fashioned out of the verbal, gestural, sartorial, behavioral―as well as linguistic―matter that comprises political communication.
