Abstract Through an examination of ultras’ disruptive claims to public space, Chapter 4 outlines the response of Irish ultras to capitalist strategies of global marketing that have popularized televised football from the United Kingdom in the Republic of Ireland. The globalization of the most competitive football leagues around the world in Ireland has atrophied spectatorship and fandom in local contexts such as the League of Ireland (LOI), making live football a niche practice and an ideal site for alternative forms of cultural production. This perceived marginality, however, has also radicalized the subjectivities of football fans that continue to hold onto traditional ideologies of support (i.e., attending all matches/that the fans are the club). At Shamrock Rovers, support in the stadium in the ultra style became its own method of asserting the tangibility of local community and real Irishness amid the broad cultural changes oriented toward the consumption of televised football.

Abstract The idea that there are categorical moral reasons has been the subject of many critiques. This chapter discusses and replies to three important objections, each inspired by the idea—dubbed the Non-Alienation thesis—that something qualifies as a practical reason only if the agents to whom it applies are not alienated from it. The first objection claims that reasons must be capable of motivating those to whom they apply; categorical moral reasons (it is alleged) are motivationally inert; so there are no such reasons. The second objection is based on a version of reasons internalism according to which something qualifies as a practical reason for an agent only if it would be aptly cited in a context of idealized conversation with her; categorical reasons are (allegedly) never apt for such citation; so categorical moral reasons don’t exist. The third objection claims that something is a practical reason for an agent to φ just because φing promotes the satisfaction of her desires; if that is the case, there are no categorical moral reasons; so there are no such reasons. The chapter shows all three objections to be mistaken. The upshot is that categorical moral reasons are a friend rather than foe of the Non-Alienation thesis.

The Narratives of Alienation Podcast project highlights the voices of individuals with dis/abilities. Using sound, I, along with participant volunteers, collaboratively created narratives that reworked what it means to feel alien using metaphors associated with dis/ability. The narratives included soundscapes, characters, and individual story episodes. Within these, the alien, alien technology, and the alien planet served as metaphors that offered a venue for narrative or counter-story. This created a platform to feel through others, and also enabled a way of making sense of oneself by concocting specific worldly reconfigurations or possibilities. It offers a way of seeing and imagining futurities in response to ableism. These narratives are presented as podcasts through a process of rearrangement, production, collection and sharing. The podcast format highlights sound art and collaboration and moves art beyond a representational role or an aesthetic object, to a performative role, a transport station, or a working-through, which offers potentialities (Ettinger, 2005). The making and collecting of these stories will begin to answer these questions: What is otherness in relation to dis/ability? How can art be used to negotiate otherness in relation to dis/ability? What happens in our encounters with each other? Can rethinking through speculative fabulation formulate an ecology of care?

Abstract This article focuses on alienation among prison guards by examining the nature of the work relations between guards and fellow guards, inmates, and prison administrators. Data for the project were derived from both questionnaire and interview sources. The independent effects of the three forms of work relations on five types of alienation were assessed through an examination of standardized regression coefficients estimated from a fully recursive model of the variable relationships. We found that negative evaluations of work relations resulted in increased levels of alienation experienced by guards.

The appeal to the problem of alienation of personality in the conditions of modern reality has relevance due to the fact that it allows analyzing the status of such a phenomenon as the crisis of self-identity. The ways of the constitution of the self by a person in the conditions of the emerging digital reality acquire the meaning of “answers” to the problem of self-alienation of the individual. The purpose of the study is to consider the newly emerging aspects of the process of alienation associated with the formation of a reality that goes beyond the empirical space of the main spheres of public life that has become familiar to the broad masses of people. The objectives of this work are: firstly, a review of the main methodological approaches to the study of alienation in the history of philosophical thought; secondly, an analysis of new forms of alienation emerging in the digital space. The most adequate to the set goals and objectives is the comparative approach, which is a transdisciplinary methodology that allows avoiding one-sided interpretation of the phenomena under study. The article examines the ideas about the nature of alienation in classical and non-classical philosophy, due to various factors of reality that generate the “discontinuity” of human existence. It is shown that the category of “alienation” is a product of understanding the contradictions between the laws of nature and society with human nature. New forms of alienation are subjected to philosophical reflection. The paper draws attention to the fact that the crisis of personal identity is largely due to the increasing role and importance of a person in the modern world. The consequence of his active life position is not only socio-cultural transformations, but also the emergence of new problems that indicate an identity crisis and require deep philosophical reflection, the search for answers to the problem of human self-alienation. The novelty of the work lies in determining the significance of the fact of constructing a virtual self-identity by a person as a way to solve the problem of self-alienation. The article is of an installation nature, its conclusions should be considered as theoretical prerequisites for the analysis of such problems as the peculiarities of modern man’s being, his identity and polyidentity, as well as the problems of determining the nature of the emerging universal hyperreality.

someone acts?’, is the problem ‘of finding an agent at work amid the workings of the mind ’ (1992, p.131). This problem arises when ‘a naturalistic conception of explanation’, implicit in the ‘standard causal story ’ of action as belief-and-desire-caused-behaviour, is adopted.1 In my opinion, the standard story, as it is standardly naturalistically understood, should be rejected. Rather than seeking an agent amidst the workings of the mind, we need to recognize an agent’s place in the world she inhabits. In order to do so we have to resist the naturalistic assumptions of the standard causal story. I use ‘naturalism ’ and cognates here in Velleman’s sense, which is the sense of my opponents. (Thus ‘naturalism ’ stands for a doctrine rejected by many authors in the present anthology, albeit that we may subscribe to a different doctrine at least as deserving of the name naturalism.) I single out Velleman’s 1992 paper for criticism because Velleman is very explicit there about his naturalistic prejudices, so that it provides a clear example of a certain style of thinking.2

ABSTRACT Normative questions about discrimination and preferences in dating have recently received mounting attention. I first argue that the current discourse can be reconstructed as between two theoretical camps: proponents of mere preference accounts and proponents of obligation accounts. Second, I argue that both positions presuppose a framework assumption to the effect that attraction is to be conceived of in terms of (positive or negative) obligations. This is because the mere preference account denies obligations in dating, whereas obligation accounts embrace (at least weak) duties. This framework assumption is ill‐begotten once we apprehend that the reality of other people always already outruns our sideways‐on theorising about what property in others we ought to be attracted to. The aim is not to solve the stand‐off between proponents of mere preferences and obligations, but to dissolve the need to conceive of attraction and dating in terms of obligations at all.

To understand why Hegel's philosophy remains interesting and relevant today even though his ontology of Geist is close to incredible, we have to return to the discussion of the opening section.

Half of all marriages end, and, when they do, most parents hope to achieve a “good divorce” in which they can amicably raise their children with their former spouse. Unfortunately, about 20% of divorces are high-conflict, involving frequent visits to court, allegations of abuse, and chronic disagreements regarding parenting schedules. In response to this conflict, some children become aligned with one parent against the other – even a parent who has done nothing to warrant the hostile rejection of their formerly loving children. These “targeted” parents suffer from the loss of time with their children, the pain of watching their children become distant, even cruel, and the uncertainty of not knowing if and when their children will come back to them. These parents are on a painful journey with an uncertain outcome. Surviving Parental Alienation fills the tremendous need for concrete help for these parents. Too often parental alienation stories that are shared by word of mouth, on the internet, or in books depict unending pain and frightening outcomes. Surviving Parental Alienation provides true stories and information about parents who have reconnected with their lost and stolen children, and offers better insight and understanding into what exactly parental alienation is and how to handle it. Targeted parents are desperate to be understood and to find cause for hope, even as they search for answers. Surviving Parental Alienation is where they can start to find this hope.
