- Michel Foucault, The Birth of Biopolitics - Chapter Twelve October 23, 2009• ‘Homo economicus strips the sovereign of power inasmuch as he reveals an essential, fundamental and major incapacity of the sovereign, that is to say, an inability to master the totality of the economic field. The sovereign cannot fail to be blind vis-à-vis the economic domain or field as a whole. The whole set of economic processes cannot fail to elude a […]
- Michel Foucault, The Birth of Biopolitics - Chapter Eleven October 22, 2009• The problem of homo economicus and its applicability to domains that are not immediately and directly economic (crime, marriage, child rearing etc.) is interesting as it posits a notion of the “rational subject” that bears no relationship to the work done in the social sciences on how individuals respond to behavioural stimuli, but it also presents homo ec […]

- Michel Foucault, The Birth of Biopolitics - Chapter Nine October 7, 2009• American neo-liberalism had become a hot topic in France by the late 1970s. Foucault sees key contextual differences between The United States and Germany (and France) as being:1. It emerges as a reaction to the Keynesian policies of Roosevelt and the New Deal, from about 1934;2. The policies of economic and social intervention are motivated in the U.S., a […]
- Michel Foucault, The Birth of Biopolitics - Chapter Eight October 7, 2009• Why this topic? The methodological reason is to give ‘concrete content to relations of power’ by understanding how the ‘grid of governmentality’ operates at the level of economic policy or social management. He also wants to get beyond the moralizing of critiques of the state because:1. It defines the state as the opposite of civil society;2. It wrongly co […]
- Michel Foucault, The Birth of Biopolitics - Chapter Seven October 6, 2009• Social policy of neo-liberalism (Gesellschaftpolitik) is ‘active, intense, and interventionist’, but is not a compensatory policy for impacts of the market economy on the social fabric. It is rather ’a historical and social condition of possibility for a market economy, as the condition enabling the formal mechanism of competition to function’ (p. 160)• Th […]

- Peter Garrett rejects Traveston Dam November 11, 2009Federal Environment Minister Peter Garrett has declined to give Anna Bligh’s Traveston Dam the tick of approval.

It had a lot more to do with Beattie’s manoeuvrings [...]Mark

There is total war. Slaughter of millions. Loss of entire generations. Loss [...]Robert Merkel
- Cribb on the future of food November 10, 2009In this post I reminded people of Gwynne Dyer’s warning that: “…the first and most important impact on human civilisation will be an acute and permanent crisis of food supply.” He reckons that food supply issues will become acute after the the temperature rises by 1C. I also relayed Hans Joachim Schellnhuber’s warning that under business as […]Brian
- Food price hike November 10, 2009Competition lawyer Professor Frank Zumbo studied food prices in the OECD from 2000 and found price increases in Australia at 41.3% were the third highest behind only New Zealand and South Korea. He had no doubt the evil duopoly of Coles and Woolworths was to blame. Graeme Samuel, the chairman of the ACCC, was more inclined [...]Brian

And celebrating they are, with lunches in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth to mark what they call "Affirmation Day". Republicans, meanwhile, are gathering on the forecourt of Parliament House in Canberra, to remind their […]Nick Bryant (The Reporters)

Alas, with Australia slipping down the global drink league table, the boozy stereotyp […]Nick Bryant (The Reporters)

So here goes: ASYLUM SEEKERS: So first to the running story […]Nick Bryant (The Reporters)
- Big Australia October 23, 2009Driving across the Nullabor Plain this week, I was struck, as ever on journeys through the outback, of the vast Australian emptiness - a sparseness of human life which is explained, of course, by a statistical gap. This is the world's sixth largest country in terms of acreage, but only the 52nd in terms of population - 22,026,000 according to the Austra […]Nick Bryant (The Reporters)
- Seeking asylum by boat or by plane October 20, 2009Why is it that asylum seekers who attempt to reach Australia by sea provoke a very different political reaction from those arriving by air? So far this year just over 1,700 unauthorised immigrants have arrived by boat, a tenfold increase on 2008. But the number is dwarfed by those arriving by air - over 50,000 who tend to overstay their visas, thus becoming […]Nick Bryant (The Reporters)

It also features an indigenous Australian, Bilal, who has converted to Islam. The book takes its title from the […]Nick Bryant (The Reporters)
- Australia and Afghanistan October 15, 2009The most pressing foreign policy issue of the day is what to do about Afghanistan. Within weeks of entering office, the Obama administration announced a troop surge of some 21,000 soldiers, and indicated it would be looking to its allies, including Australia, to bolster their own commitment. Now, a complete rethink is underway in Washington prompted by mount […]Nick Bryant (The Reporters)
- Is Australia unusually racist? October 12, 2009The Channel Nine show Hey Hey It's Saturday was a staple of 1970s Australia. Last week's blackface skit, which has generated so many unfavourable international headlines, also had a distinctly retro and unreconstructed feel. Racist, too, according to the shows many detractors. For those who missed it, the variety show aired a talent segment in whic […]Nick Bryant (The Reporters)

The final speaker of this final session at AoIR 2009 is Raquel Recuero, who shifts our focus to Brazil and its adoption of Twitter and Plurk (another micromessaging tool, but one which has a horizontal rather than vertical logic and enables replies within the message - Google Wave-style, it seems).

There is a perception that email in […]Snurb
- Twitter as a Technology of Immediacy October 10, 2009Milwaukee. The first speaker in this final session at AoIR 2009 is Taina Bucher.

Our being in time is characterised by the scarcity of time in the 24h society; Twitter reacts to that by encouraging sh […]Snurb
