Despite their unlikely association Taubes & Schmitt shared an abiding interest in the fundamental problems of political theology believing the great challenges of modern political theory were ancient in pedigree & in many cases anticipated the works of Judeo-Christian eschatologists. In this collection of Taubes's writings on Schmitt the two intellectuals work through ideas of the apocalypse & other central concepts of political theology. Taubes acknowledges Schmitt's reservations about the weakness of liberal democracy yet distances himself from his prescription to rectify it arguing the apocalyptic worldview requires less of a rigid hierarchical social ordering than a community committed to the importance of decision making. In these writings a sharper & more nuanced portrait of Schmitt's thought emerges as well as a more complicated understanding of Taubes who has shaped the work of Giorgio Agamben Peter Sloterdijk & other major twentieth-century theorists. ...

An expose on the fashion industry written by the Observers Ethical Living columnist examining the inhumane & environmentally devastating story behind the clothes we so casually buy & wear. Coming at a time when the global financial crisis & contracting of consumer spending is ushering in a new epoch for the fashion industry To Die For offers a very plausible vision of how green could really be the new black. Taking particular issue with our current mania for both big-name labels & cheap fashion To Die For sets an agenda for the urgent changes that can & need to be made by both the industry & the consumer. Far from outlining a future of drab ethical clothing Lucy Siegle believes that it is indeed possible to be an ethical fashionista simply by being aware of how & where (and by whom) clothing is manufactured. The global banking crisis has put the consumer at a crossroads: when money is tight should we embrace cheap fast fashion to prop up an already engorged wardrobe or should we reject this as the ultimate false economy & advocate a return to real fashion bolstered by the principles of individualism & style pedigree? In this impassioned book Siegle analyses the global epidemic of unsustainable fashion taking stock of our economic health & moral accountabilities to expose the pitfalls of fast fashion. Refocusing the debate squarely back on the importance of basic consumer rights Siegle reveals the truth behind cut price bulk fashion & the importance of your purchasing decisions advocating the case for a new sustainable design era where we are assured of value for money: ethically morally & in real terms. ...
