Synopsis

Banned Dances explores the historical suppression of dance, revealing the motivations behind censoring artistic expression across different cultures and eras. It examines how dance, a potent form of nonverbal communication, has been perceived as a threat to social order and political power. The book argues that anxieties surrounding morality, female sexuality, and cultural boundaries often fuel dance censorship. One intriguing example explored is the initial condemnation of the Waltz in the 19th century due to its close embrace being viewed as scandalous. 

 
The book progresses by identifying recurring themes in the history of dance censorship. Drawing upon primary sources like newspaper accounts and artistic manifestos, Banned Dances analyzes the debates surrounding controversial dances, revealing the prejudices of the time. The study also considers how dancers and choreographers have creatively subverted restrictions. It offers a fresh perspective by connecting dance censorship to broader issues of freedom of expression, cultural identity, and social justice, making it valuable for those interested in history, performing arts, and cultural studies.

Disembedded - Regulation Crisis...

Basak Kus

During the last two decades, there has been much scholarly and popular interest in the financialization of the American economy—why the turn to finance has taken place, what constituted it, and what has come out of it. In Disembedded, Basak Kus draws from the theories of Karl Polanyi—one of the greatest and most influential political economists of the twentieth century—to answer these questions. Focused primarily on the state's regulatory role in a dominantly financialized economy, Kus examines how neoliberal principles influenced the evolution of American regulatory policies, shaping the financial sector's operations and practices. Her narrative traces the trajectory of these interactions, highlighting critical junctures, policy decisions, and market outcomes that culminated in the financial crisis. Offering historical insights into the financial crisis spanning 2007-2010 and its ensuing influence on American politics and democracy, Disembedded provides a broad-ranging and systemic explanation of the American political economy, especially the regulatory landscape that shaped the patterns of financialization.

The Miracle of Our Universe - A...

Marsha Sims, Bernard Haisch

Without consciousness there is nothing. Have you ever wondered why and how the world around you came to exist, and whether there might be an afterlife experience awaiting you after our physical bodies die? Might there actually be a God and a heaven of some sort? The hypothesis presented in this book is that our seemingly physical universe of matter and energy is a virtual simulation which is thought into existence by a universal consciousness which we call God. 
 
 
 
A reason for a universal consciousness to do such a thing could be to experience and evolve itself through the free will actions of its offspring. This would entail thinking into existence a virtual universe so as to interact with such a universe and each other. Literally everything is consciousness in action, resulting in a gigantic cosmic simulation. We and other creatures are offspring of this God consciousness. 
 
 
 
The Miracle of Our Universe explores the forefront of science and spirituality research, including: Are near-death experiences real? What is the Zero-Point Field? What kind of being could God be? Is there some place that God could have come from? How does the Big Bang figure into this? Is there an afterlife and what could it be like? What is the purpose of life? Is consciousness all there is? Is the Universe a virtual reality? Why is Hell impossible?
