Paperback. Condition: New. Herbert Marcuse examined the subjective and material conditions of radical social change and developed the "Great Refusal," a radical concept of "the protest against that which is." The editors and contributors to the exciting new volume The Great Refusal provide an analysis of contemporary social movements around the world with particular reference to Marcuse's revolutionary concept. The book also engages-and puts Marcuse in critical dialogue with-major theorists including Slavoj Zizek and Michel Foucault, among others. The chapters in this book analyze different elements and locations of the contemporary wave of struggle, drawing on the work and vision of Marcuse in order to reveal, with a historical perspective, the present moment of resistance. Essays seek to understand recent uprisings-such as the Zapatistas in Mexico, the Arab Spring, and the Occupy movement-in the context of Marcuse's powerful conceptual apparatus.The Great Refusal also charts contemporary social movements against global warming, mass incarceration, police brutality, white supremacy, militarization, technological development, and more, to provide insights that advance our understanding of resistance today.Contributors include: Kevin B. Anderson, Stanley Aronowitz, Joan Braune, Jenny Chan, Angela Y. Davis, Arnold L. Farr, Andrew Feenberg, Michael Forman, Christian Fuchs, Stefan Gandler, Christian Garland, Toorjo Ghose, Imaculada Kangussu, George Katsiaficas, Douglas Kellner, Sarah Lynn Kleeb, Filip Kovacevic, Lauren Langman, Heather Love, Peter Marcuse, Martin J.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - He cut Jackie Kennedy's hair. He witnessed Whitney Houston's final days. He moved among the most powerful women in the world-and kept their secrets.In 1960, a seventeen-year-old Cuban refugee arrived in New York City speaking almost no English. Within a decade, Peter Lamas was styling Jackie Kennedy's hair-and listening as she shared her private suspicions about who killed her husband.From Batista's Havana-where his father once shaved the throat of a man carrying a gun inside his own palace-to a Manhattan funeral home where he prepared Judy Garland for her final public appearance, Peter Lamas built a life that repeatedly placed him at the intersection of beauty, fame, and the private truths celebrities rarely reveal.Over the next six decades, he would find himself in the rooms where history, glamour, and tragedy quietly overlapped. He was there when Vidal Sassoon gave Mia Farrow her iconic pixie cut for Rosemary's Baby. He spent time with Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, and Audrey Hepburn. He encountered Ernest Hemingway and Che Guevara in revolutionary Cuba. And decades later, he was inside Whitney Houston's hotel suite within minutes of her death.Why did they trust him Because a stylist works in silence and intimacy-hands in your hair, close enough to whisper. In the chair, people talk. They reveal what they would never say anywhere else. Peter understood early that his scissors were more than a tool-they were a key.Jackie Kennedy's Stylist is a memoir of reinvention across six decades and two countries-the story of a boy who learned to read a room before he could read the language, and who taught himself to belong in worlds that were never built for him.Funny, candid, and deeply human, this is a front-row seat to the golden age of Hollywood glamour, New York high society, and the music industry at its most glittering-told by the man who was quietly always in the room.Some people stand in the spotlight. Others are trusted with what happens just outside it.…
