Softcover Magazine. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. [JOURNALISM]. Editor: Jonathon Sturgeon. Contributors: Tarence Ray, Evan Malmgren, Matthew Shen Goodman, Hussein Omar, Tope Folarin, et al. "The Baffler Magazine, Jul-Aug 2021, No. 58. 'Secret Connexions.'" The Baffler Foundation, Inc.; New York, 2021. English language. Softcover perfect-bound magazine. 136 pages. Color illustrations. Text clean. Near Fine. No ISSN. "The epistemic weather is inclement. Possibly the most storm-damaged truth claim of all is the one that promises market exchange can provide a stable foundation for democratic life. Itâ??s this dying rumor of liberalism that Tope Folarin considers in â??Masters of Reality,â? the opening essay of this fifty-eighth issue of the magazine, where the childhood memory of a transaction gone wrong hints at the white arrangement of truth. In very much the same spirit, Tarence Rayâ??s â??United in Rageâ? has in its sights the web of myths thatâ??s pushed the opioid crisis in eastern Kentucky, a region plagued by the kind of transactional logic that has offered the poor not the truth but rather another means to die. Their mortal remains are often subject to yet more bureaucratic dealing, as we hear in Wendy Selene Pérezâ??s â??Letter From Texas,â? a story of migration, debt, and a familyâ??s struggle to repatriate a loved oneâ??s ashes to Mexico at the pandemicâ??s height. Mohammad Ali, meanwhile, writes of his experience reporting on Hindu vigilantes in Modiâ??s India, where a â??fringeâ? ideology has now become a constant threat to the countryâ??s Muslim population and journalismâ??s â??conventions of self-effacement and objectivityâ? are little match for the grief and fear endured by Muslim reporters.Famous men, in these conditions, act mysteriously, or much worse. In Hussein Omarâ??s survey of Edward Saidâ??s career, we see how a charismatic public intellectual can easily become a cipher for a biographerâ??s ideas about what matters. New York mayoral also-ran Andrew Yang, in Matthew Shen Goodmanâ??s analysis, likewise loses himself to competing truths, in this case about the political market-value of Asian American life. Madison Mainwaring dissects the horrors of ongoing sexual abuse in elite French cultural institutions, where men become rumors to evade detection, responsibility, and prosecution. We donâ??t know how to cut through this electrofogâ??to find what David Hume called â??the secret connexionâ? that explains why one event follows another. But we suspect whatever works will keep to the light of Jess McAllenâ??s â??The Anti-Antidepressant Syndicate,â? which uncovers Marxists and Scientologists alike in its effort to get to the bottom (or the top) of the anti-psychiatry debate. Or Evan Malmgrenâ??s strange trip into the Quiet Zone of those living in fear of 5G. Or Marlowe Granadosâ??s defense of the bimboâ??a figure in pop culture who is always beset by nasty rumors. Or J.W. McCormack and John Semleyâ??s inquiries into the fiction of Don DeLillo and Thomas Pynchon, respectively, or new fiction from Alexandra Kleemanâ??all consulted or presented here, but never made into an instrument, a smokescreen, or even a rumor.".…

Magazine. Condizione: Very Good Plus. [JOURNALISM]. Ed. Jonathan Sturgeon. Contributors: Barbara Ehrenreich, William Powhida, Lydia Millet, Terrance Hayes, Jessica Loudis, et al. "The Baffler, No. 38, Mar / Apr 2018, "Holy Orders." New York: The Baffler Foundation, 2018. English language. Perfect-bound magazine. Text with full-color illustrations. 9 1/2 x 6 3/4 inches. 9 oz. 136 pp. Text clean. No issues. With subscription advert insert. Very Good Plus. ISSN: 1059-9789. "Baffler 38 presents an eclectic array of musings on the cults, sects, and holy orders populating the cybernated badlands and civic swamps of our accursed epoch. From Barbara Ehrenreich on the agonizing postmodern asceticism that is fitness culture, to Ann Neumann on the Mexican folk idol who?s been conscripted into the drug wars, we?re tipping the innumerable, and often unchallenged, sacred cows of the Trump era. Jessica Loudis travels all the way to Georgia to investigate a new wave of Stalin nostalgia, while Bruce Bartlett pines for a Republican Party actually invested in economics. Eugene McCarraher scrutinizes the deranged doctrines of Ayn Rand, chief theologian of the neoliberal church of capital, and Jeff Hauser takes on a cult of fundamentalist political scientists bent on predicting us into oblivion.". …

Softcover Magazine. Condizione: Very Good. 1st. Editor: Jonathon Sturgeon. Contributors: Kirsten Weld, Dana Kopel, Zinzi Clemmons, Richard Rhodes, Dale Peck, et al. "The Baffler Magazine, Sep-Oct 2021, No. 59, 'Ill Liberalism.'" The Baffler Foundation, Inc.; New York, 2021. English language. Softcover perfect-bound magazine. 136 pages. Color illustrations. Text clean. Back page has slight ripples. Front cover slightly bows out. Very Good Plus. No ISSN. "DON?T LOOK NOW. Contemporary liberals are summoning an omnium gatherum of dead words and outdated textbooks, dredging up confused accounts of Enlightenment rationality that tend to mutate into smug but underfunded mandates to ?believe in science!? and calling everything from Bernie Sanders?s speeches to January?s Capitol riot to the global profusion of Black Lives Matter protests ?illiberal,? an insult so circular it?s almost vicious.With the election of Joe Biden, this liberal consensus found its politics ascendant?we?re a long way away from the illiberal summer of 2020. But what to do with all this power so over-theorized and underused by the solutions-free left? By this time they?d lost sight of, or confusedly tried to befriend, their enemies on the right, though the latter continued to grow less and less subtle, as we see in the Trumpification, even now, of liberal pets like J.D. Vance. No, at the climax, liberals got sweaty and confused, ?trapped at the stage of analysis,? as David Berman once wrote, ?unable to perform some simple task,? like canceling student loan debt. By its own diagnosis, liberalism was ill. It needed to be ?rehabilitated.?In issue no. 59 of The Baffler, ?ILL LIBERALISM,? we?ll not do that. Instead we anatomize liberalism?s self-diagnosed illnesses, from its preoccupation with the post-Enlightenment idea that ?history will judge us,? a way of deflecting responsibility for real-time justice in the case of atrocity; to the way it twists international consensus on nuclear deterrence, leaving nations saddled with terrifying weapons that have been used ?repeatedly across the years to threaten and to dominate, though not always successfully??and one expert?s prescription for ?possibly the only non-destructive way out of the double bind of arms races.?Then there?s the nearly forgotten history of ?corporate liberalism,? which might help explain why liberals today love to align themselves with progressive causes in order to latch onto and temper the forces of populism, democratic socialism, and antitrust policy, among others. Liberalism has always been, we argue, the politics of business?all the way back to slavery. And the business of liberalism is making everyone, including liberals, sick.". …

Very Good Minus. ISSN: 1059-9789. "Baffler 57 takes its title, 'Movements and Campaigns,' from Richard Rorty in Dissent. Is it better, his question went, to complete discrete projects in solidarity with individual interest groups, or to focus our energies on 'building a movement?' In other words, how do we pick up the pieces and prevent the current global disaster from being used to further exploit us? And how do we make sure that we get what we need to survive the next one?".…

Barry Yeoman, in 'Battle Hymns of the Old South,' visits Graham, North Carolina, where 'activists of different races and generations are building a superstructure larger than their individual organizations' and thereby challenging the mutations of neo-Confederacy sprouting in the South.".…
