Abstract

"Linked by their histories of conflict, the burgeoning contemporary art scenes of Vietnam and Cambodia have not yet garnered significant global attention. In 'The City in Time,' Pamela Corey focuses on these artists and their contexts, suggesting alternative ways of understanding contemporary artistic practices within a region that lingers in international perceptions as perpetually 'post-war.' Focusing on Ho Chi Minh and Phnom Penh, Corey explores how these key Southeast Asian cities shape artistic practices while the art simultaneously consolidates images of the cities. By tracing how collective memory and national aspiration are symbolically mapped onto landscape and built space, Corey portrays the city as an organizing site of heterogeneous subjectivities, communities, and perspectives brought together in a collective space. 'The City in Time' considers how the city has significantly served as a mold for contemporary art in Vietnam and Cambodia, examining the ways artists have simultaneously re-focused the city as target of reform, renewal and promise, participating in and pushing the geographical and methodological boundaries of global contemporary art"--

Abstract

Milan Zafirovski identifies and investigates the resurgence of capitalist dictatorship in contemporary society, especially after 2016. This book introduces the concept of capitalist dictatorship to the academic audience for the first time. It examines the capitalist dictatorship as a total social system composed of specific systems such as a coercive economy, repressive polity, illiberal civil society and irrational culture in contrast to liberal democracy. It also investigates multiple dimensions, forms and indicators of capitalist dictatorship, and calculates degrees of capitalist dictatorship for contemporary Western and comparable societies such as OECD countries. Capitalist dictatorship, including autocracy, Zafirovski argues, is the gravest threat to contemporary democratic society post-2016.

Focuses on how decades of neoliberal capitalism have eroded the global democratic project and how, in the process, authoritarian politics are gaining ground. Scholars and activists from the political left focus on four country cases - India, Brazil, South Africa and the US - in which the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the pre-existing crisis.
