On Pedestals
2008-11-19 16:14:00 One of my students alerted me to Christopher Knight?s LA Times piece on an exhibit by sculptor Jason Meadows. Meadows invited some fellow sculptors to show work and he made pedestals for the resultant sculptures. As a ?meditation on the pedestal in the age of late Conceptual art,? Knight?s essay touches on Constantin Brancusi and the pedestal controversy. Knight, as ever thoughtful and gently provocative, asks a few questions that indicate our contemporary anxiety about ?sculpture in the expanded field? and whether we need to worry about pedestals. Rhetorical or not, I came up with some answers to these questions and want to share them. Christopher Knight?s questions are followed by my ?answers? in italics:Question No. 1: Is a pedestal made by a sculptor the base for a work of art, or is it another sculpture?Neither: it's a comment on the pedestal as art theory. As theory, it assumes we are aware of art history and plays off of our recognition of the advancement of Modernist ...

The J Street Project, or ?Yes, Virginia, you can be pro-Israel and progress
2008-04-16 04:26:00 I’m Jewish. You don’t hear me blog about this much for a variety of reasons, one of the major ones being that you are then inevitably asked to take a stand on Israel–as if such a thing even needed to be discussed, like Marx’s odious asking of “The Jewish Question.” My faith influences my thinking in a lot of ways, but it is not the sole arbiter of my thinking, and I don’t feel that I have to travel in lockstep with what any other Jew thinks–certainly not about Israel, which has every right to exist as a sovereign state, yet commits indefensible acts against peoples it (rightly or wrongly) perceives as implacable foes. As such, people like myself stay out of the debate, allowing it to be usurped and dominated by a cabal of crazy ultrahawkish right-wing Zionists who claim that anything short of total annihilation of Palestine will end with, as my father says, “the Jews being driven into the sea.” Thankfully, there’s an ...

Was Karl Marx a Zionist NeoCon? -- Part 2 -- Was Marx the Previous Incarna
2007-11-18 10:32:00 It is clear that Karl Marx would be considered quite politically incorrect today. He had a low opinion of Islam and Islamic society and of its capacity for civilization. Nevertheless, the Bolsheviks early declared their support for the political claims of Muslim peoples and nations against those of non-Muslims, even those of dhimmi peoples who had suffered mass murder at Muslim hands, like the Armenians [see here]. Curiously, the Bolshevik pro-Muslim, pro-Arab policy converged with that of the British Empire --supposed imperialist enemies and betes noires of Communism. This was especially so in the Land of Israel, where the British government was supposed to help Jews return to their ancient homeland and to foster development of the Jewish National Home, designated by the San Remo Conference and the League of Nations.Here Karl Marx sounds like Hugh Fitzgerald, the learned anti-Islamist of the JihadWatch/DhimmiWatch websites. Even in 1853 there was a pro-Islamist or Turcophile press ...

Was Karl Marx a Zionist NeoCon? A Bat Ye'or or a Robert Spencer ahead of hi
2007-11-16 00:14:00 Karl Marx is supposed to be one of the intellectual founders of Leftism, whatever that means today. Today, of course, the standard "leftist" position is to support Arab and Islamic terrorism --for whatever reason. Nevertheless, Karl Marx took the position that Islamic society was barbarous and an obstacle to civilization. Does that mean that Robert Spencer, Bat Ye'or, David Bukay, and likeminded others were really Marxists?Here's what Marx had to say back in 1853 in the American newspaper, the New York Tribune [or Daily Tribune], edited by Horace Greeley, for which Marx was a regular foreign affairs correspondent:This splended territory [the Balkans] has the misfortune to be inhabited by a conglomerate of different races and nationalities, of which it is hard to say which is the least fit for progress and civilization. . . Slavonians [Slavs], Greeks, Wallachians [Rumanians], Arnauts [Albanians], twelve millions of men, are all held in submission by one million of Turks, and up to...

he Big Three in Economics: Adam Smith, Karl Marx, and John Maynard Keynes ?
2007-09-19 02:34:00 Mark Skousen, The Big Three in Economics: Adam Smith, Karl Marx, and John Maynard Keynes??????:?????????????????M-.E. Sharpe | ISBN 0765616947 | 2007 | PDF | 1 MB | 257 pagesThis book is a history of modern economics as represented by the contributions of the three most influential economists in world history. Adam Smith expounded a revolutionary new doctrine in the 18th century that a nation of rich and poor could flourish under laissez faire and an unfettered market; Karl Marx inspired disenfranchised workers and intellectuals in the 19th century to end the exploitation of the underprivileged by the powerful; and in the 20th century, British economist John Maynard Keynes sought to stabilize a crisis prone market system through activist fiscal and monetary government policies.

William Pesek: Karl Marx punting on Chinese stocks
2007-06-10 16:07:00 From Asbury Park Press Karl Marx is back in China, and the philosopher is arguably bigger than ever.Yes, yes, Asia's No. 2 economy is barreling ahead on the free-market highway. Beijing has even gotten hip to the private-equity craze, buying a $3 billion stake in Blackstone Group LP. Now that, as Milton Friedman might say, is capitalism.It's interesting, then, that China's markets in some respects are looking more like the kinds envisioned by Marx than by laissez-faire champion Friedman.Mao Zedong fancied himself an heir to Marx. Today, when investors look at China's 11-percent growth and domestic reforms, the Marxist theory China subscribed to back in the 20th century seldom comes to mind.And were Marx to visit modern-day China, he might be distressed to see how the rich are flourishing and a sizable portion of gross domestic product comes from private companies, while the poor need to pay for education and health care. China also hopes one day to arrive at a system where marke...
