Alienation Effects

Jakovljevic, Branislav · Directory of Open access Books (OAPEN Foundation) · 2016

Exciting new scholarship has been emerging as performance studies scholars begin to turn their attention to the performance of politics, nationhood, and jurisprudence. Branislav Jakovljevic’s project on the history and eventual demise of the former Yugoslavia demonstrates how fruitful this approach can be. Jakovljevic considers the concept of theatricality as central to understanding the events that took place in Yugoslavia. He examines the country’s trials, state ceremonies and festivals, army maneuvers, propaganda, and pop culture as “rehearsals and temporary enactments of an ideologically formulated future.” His first chapter reveals the surrealist, avant-garde origins of key members of the Yugoslav bureaucracy after WWII, suggesting that those connections helped the culture of socialist Yugoslavia become a performance-centered culture. Continuing to explore the relationship between the political avant-garde and the artistic avant-garde, he looks at the spectacle of student demonstrations in Belgrade in 1968, and, in their aftermath, the rise of performance art in the country. The third chapter (included here) zeros in on the various political performances of Slobodan Milosevic, including his courtroom testimony at the ICTY, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. The fourth chapter discusses the “Peter Handke Affair,” when the Austrian playwright had a major prize revoked after he attended Milosevic’s funeral and recited a poem he had written in Milosevic’s honor.

On Alienation

Davide Cadeddu · RePEc: Research Papers in Economics

Abstract In the attempt to identify the origins of Adriano Olivetti’s political thought, various different studies have noted that his father was Jewish and his mother Waldesian, but that his religious education was free from dogma. These biographical details are often employed to simplistically ascribe a messianic, dreamlike, and even visionary quality to Olivetti’s ‘character’, and a fanciful and eclectic edge to his political thought, rather than offering a true understanding of the influence that religion exerted over him. It is an influence, though, that is notable, given that his political reflection took shape from the consideration of the reality ‘of man and his true nature’, a consideration nourished in itself by views of religious origin.

Beyond Alienation?

Chris Yuill · 2023

In the preceding chapters I have outlined that alienation exerts a toll on wellbeing and health. Human lives are stunted and damaged and, stepping into a more normative register, they are not what they could be. The capacities and capabilities that social agents possess lack the freedom to be fully actualized, and when those capacities and capabilities are enacted, it is within a set of estranged relations for the purposes of capitalist accumulation.

Understanding alienation

Meral Kızrak, Hakan Turgut, İsmail Tokmak · 2023

When employees are unable to find the comfort, satisfaction, belongingness, and connection in the workplace, they may feel isolated from the social structure of their work environment, which ultimately may pose a threat to the effectiveness and efficiency of organizations. Therefore, addressing employee alienation as one of the dark sides of organizational behavior can help practitioners and theoreticians to gain more insights in understanding organizational behavior. In this chapter we will shed light on the issue of alienation in the organizational behavior studies. We begin by looking at the sociological and philosophical explanations made by influential scholars. Then, after the analysis of alienation in terms of its classification, operationalization, and dimensional constructs, we provide a review of empirical and theoretical studies in the extant literature and their results to show its relationship with other organizational behavior variables. Finally, we conclude our analysis with the implications for theory and practice.

Alienation Revisited

Jonathan Toms · Palgrave Macmillan UK eBooks · 2013

In 1956 moral treatment announced its comeback in the asylum. Or rather T. P. Rees, the Medical Superintendent of Warlingham Park Hospital, announced it. In a presidential address delivered to the Royal Medico-Psychological Association (RMPA) he maintained that, although there had been real advances in scientific treatment, probably the most important change from the patients’ point of view had been the return of moral treatment to the mental hospital.537 For Rees, the modern progressive mental hospital had returned to the view of the insane epitomized by moral treatment. Patients were ‘normal people who had lost their reason as a result of having been exposed to severe psychological and social stresses’. What mattered was the creation of the right ‘atmosphere’ for their care and treatment.

Alienation (2018)

Keith Tudor · 2025

This chapter questions the reliance that psychologists, psychotherapists, and others in the ‘psy’ professions have come to have on medicine and, specifically, on medical and psychiatric understanding of ‘illness’, ‘pathology’, and ‘disorder’. The main paper positions psychopathology in terms of alienation. Based on a keynote speech delivered in Japan by a Westerner who lives in the Southern hemisphere (the author), the chapter considers alienation from a cross-cultural perspective. The author is particularly grateful for the invitation for a keynote presentation to come from the land of the Long White Cloud (Aotearoa, New Zealand) to the land of the Rising Sun (Japan), as for him, symbolically speaking, this completes an intellectual journey that now encompasses all four points of the compass. The paper is followed by a reflection by Deepak Dhananjaya.

Golden alienation

Felipe Gaitán Ammann · Journal of Social Archaeology · 2006

Is Prehispanic gold a commodity or a gift? In the process of becoming a first-tier icon of Colombian identity, the Gold Museum in Bogotá has attempted to formulate an answer to this thorny question. Far from encouraging the valuation of gold artifacts as ancient commodities related to mundane aspects of social life, the Museum has focused its curatorial mission on enhancing the symbolic and spiritual meaning of its archaeological collections. In this article, I trace back the historical reasons leading the Museum to take such a path at the risk of favoring an essentialized understanding of Prehispanic goldwork in the present. Although maintaining this choice in a multicultural nation such as the one the Republic of Colombia officially claims to be today is a problematic decision, the Museum can build upon a refined understanding of the materiality of gold to overcome this impasse and bridge past and present in a socially productive way.

AND ALIENATION

Seth Adler, Seth Adler · 2014

Stanley Aronowitz has called for the formation of a broad-based U.S.left party for a number of decades, and his recent book, Left Turn:Forging a New Political Future marks a culmination of years of study, activism and critical analysis of these matters (Aronowitz, 2006). The book provides a rich historical and comparative analysis about how to build a broad based left party in the United States, and is also an incisive analysis of the difficulty of building a Left political party in the U.S. with the type of longevity and power which some left, labor, socialist and communist par-ties and social movements have attained in other countries. The Manifesto for a Left Turn, discussed in this issue of Situations, contains many of the ideas developed in the book (Aronowitz, et. al. 2008). Why —despite the decades that Aronowitz has called for a political party and as of late, a pre-party or Left formation (e.g., on radio interviews, at conferences, in articles), and despite the persuasive evidence and arguments that Aronowitz has long presented for why one should exist —hasn’t this proposal inspired widespread debate? I will attempt to address this question in an approach that begins from the inside and concentrates less on a view
