Papers
The City: Labyrinth & Library: The Agonism of the Public-Space
The paper asks about the spaces available for the Other within contemporary cityscapes. It is describing places that materialize cosmopolitics through antagonistic and agonistic practices in the urban space.
The Pertevniyal Valide Sultan Mosque: “An Auspicious Event On An Auspicious Site”
This paper will examine why and how such preferences emerged and establish what Michael Baxandall has called the “period eye.” Furthermore, I will investigate a point that Ottoman art historians who have explained the choice of style have omitted,
Brazilians’ Houses: Assertion of an Architectural Identity in Northern Portugal
Everybody has the right to be included and participate in the valorization of this patrimony, according to their choices, as a way of ensuring the right to freely take part in cultural life. Hence the importance of promoting and deepening the participation of citizens in the preservation of this patrimony.
Synthecultural Communities: What, How, Why, and Who Cares?
The value of Synthecultural Communicative Competence is that relevant skills can be applied to virtually any occupation, transferred to venues outside of school for social and professional agility. Sample learning activities demonstrate that computers with Internet, plus not only the teacher but all persons present, may serve as resources for learning that can happen for every individual participating.
Performing Identity between Qualified and Disqualified Epistemologies
This paper takes the position that the identity-defense of epistemolgies is a labor of modern epistemologies often often focused on meta, and taxonomizing concerns. We do not simply speak to each other, but seek to classify each other.
Transcending Classical (Western) Philosophy
In this paper, I would review (Western) Philosophy in a way which would suggest that it is time for (Western) mankind to consider a new system, urging my audience to conceptualize the Effectuationism system.
French Theory and Literary Darwinism
Darwinian theory as practiced by real biologists (and not literary Darwinists), particularly Evolutionary Game Theory, is itself an intellectual project of deep and subtle power. I want to argue for the reconciliation of such biologically minded French theorists as Michel Leiris, Georges Bataille, and Roger Caillois with the best insights of evolutionary game theory and the theory of costly signaling.
Labor as a Moment of Capital. Understanding the Old and the New Werkritik
This paper proposes a comparative analysis of their theories read against the Marxist tradition they both recognize as founding, with the aim of emphasizing the philosophical and political impact of this new re-conceptualization of labor and the shifting of the critique point that it entails.
Three Components of a Grand Theory of Capitalist Society: Economy, Politics and Ideology
The paper formulates the basic, root contradictions of capitalist social relations and their institutionalization as economy, politics and ideology and differentiates them into three sub-spheres as pure economy, political economy and political ideology.
Towards a New Position in Fair Trade: From “In or Against” to “Existing Together and In Order to Change” the Market
In this paper, I aim to present a novel perspective which sees the most prominent part of the Fair Trade movement – the Fairtrade system, as “existing together with and in order to change the market”.
