Abstract

This volume explores the theme of marginality in the literature and history of the Neronian and Flavian periods. As a concept of modern criticism, the term marginality has been applied to the connection between the uprooted experience of immigrant communities and the subsequent diasporas these groups formed in their new homes. The concept also covers individuals or groups who were barred from access to resources and equal opportunities based on their deviation from a "normal" or dominant culture or ideology. From a literary vantage point, we are interested in the voices of "marginal," or underappreciated authors and critical voices. The distinction between marginalia and "the" text is often nebulous, with marginal comments making their way into the paradosis and being regarded, in modern criticism, as important sources of information in their own right. The analysis of relevant passages from various authors including Lucan, Petronius, Persius, Philo of Alexandria, Pliny the Elder, Silius Italicus, and Statius, as well as the Moretum of the Appendix Vergiliana is vital for our understanding of the treatment of marginalized people in various literary genres in relation to each one’s different purposes.

Abstract

Prononcé au Collège de France de janvier à mars 1975, le cours sur "Les Anormaux" poursuit les analyses que Michel Foucault a consacrées depuis 1970, et surtout dans "Il faut défendre la société", à la question du savoir et du pouvoir : pouvoir disciplinaire, pouvoir de normalisation, bio-pouvoir. C'est à partir de multiples sources, théologiques, juridiques et médicales, que Foucault aborde le problème de ces individus "dangereux" qu'on appelle, au XIXe siècle, les "anormaux". Il en définit les trois figures principales : les monstres, qui font référence aux lois de la nature et aux normes de la société, les incorrigibles, pris en charge par les nouveaux dispositifs de dressage du corps, et les onanistes, qui alimentent, depuis le XVIIIe siècle, une campagne visant à la mise en discipline de la famille moderne. Les analyses de Foucault prennent comme point de départ des expertises médico-légales qu'on pratique encore dans les années 1950. Il esquisse ensuite une archéologie de l'instinct et du désir, à partir des techniques de l'aveu dans la confession et dans la direction de conscience. Il pose ainsi les prémisses historiques et théoriques de travaux qui seront repris, remaniés, réélaborés dans son enseignement au Collège et dans les ouvrages ultérieurs. Ce cours représente donc une pièce essentielle pour suivre les recherches de Foucault dans leur formation, leurs prolongements et leurs développements.

Abstract

"Breaking with the exoticizing cast of public discourse and conventional research, Urban Outcasts takes the reader inside the black ghetto of Chicago and the deindustrializing banlieue of Paris to discover that urban marginality is not everywhere the same. Drawing on a wealth of original field, survey and historical data, Loic Wacquant shows that the involution of America's urban core after the 1960s is due not to the emergence of an 'underclass', but to the joint withdrawal of market and state fostered by public policies of racial separation and urban abandonment. In European cities, by contrast, the spread of districts of 'exclusion' does not herald the formation of ghettos. It stems from the decomposition of working-class territories under the press of mass unemployment, the casualization of work and the ethnic mixing of populations hitherto segregated, spawning urban formations akin to 'anti-ghettos'."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

The very logic of majority rule implies unequal treatment or discrimination. If left unconstrained, majority coalitions will promote the interests of their own members at the expense of other persons. This book focuses on the effects of applying a generality constraint on the political process. Under this requirement, majorities would be constitutionally prohibited from treating different persons and groups differently. The generality principle is familiar in that all persons are to be treated equally. In summary, this book extends the generality norm to politics. Several defences of equal treatment or generality are developed and applied. These include the familiar intuition that invokes fairness. But the primary argument here is centred on political efficiency, which is increased when governments are constrained to treat persons or groups generally rather than differentially. The political efficiency defence of the generality constraint is based on a public choice analysis of the implication of majoritarian discrimination.
