In his foreword to "Controversies in Psychoanalytic Method,"
Daniel Stern writes:
"Andre Haynal gives us a perspective on the history of
psychoanalysis, and much more, in this mult-faceted and remarkable
book. Several stories and lines of enquiry are woven together.
There is the story of the Budapest school of psychoanalysis and its
impact. Within and around that story there are accounts of the
lives and works of Ferenczi and Baliniwho provided the core of the
Budapest school."
"And this brings us to the great controversy that began between
Freud and Ferenczi, and was continued in the work of Baliant.
Haynal describes this controversy in terms of the initial form it
took; a disagreement about experimenting with technique, and
Ferenczi's pjlacing the analytic situation more squarely at the
centre of the enquiry...But most valuable of all, he then
elaborates upon the full implications of the controversy, and we
discover this split to be at the heart of the major questions still
at issue in psychoanalysis: Emphasis on technique vs. on
metaphsychology; direct experience vs. insight; process vs.
content; the patient's subjectivity vs. the 'scientific' theory;
empathy vs. interpretation; a psychology of one person (the
patient) vs. a psychology of two people, the patient-therapist
dyad; transference-coutnertransference and the 'real'
relationship."
In this unique and dramatic account of the rise of neoliberalism
Howard and King consider the major features of historical
materialism, the factors which resulted in 19th and 20th century
thinkers incorrectly predicting the long-term decline of the
market, and the prospects for a reversal of neoliberalism in the
21st century.
This vital addition to the Routledge History of Economic Thought
series surveys arguably the most important country in the
development of economics as we know it today - the United States of
America. A History of American Economic Thought is a comprehensive
study of American economics as it has evolved over time, with
several singularly unique features including: a thorough
examination of the economics of American aboriginals prior to 1492;
a detailed discussion of American economics as it has developed
during the last fifty years; and a generous dose of non-mainstream
American economics under the rubrics "Other Voices" and
"Crosscurrents." It is far from being a native American community,
and numerous social reformers and those with alternative points of
view are given as much weight as the established figures who
dominate the mainstream of the profession. Generous doses of
American economic history are presented where appropriate to give
context to the story of American economics as it proceeds through
the ages, from seventeenth-century pre-independence into the
twentieth-first century packed full of influential figures
including John Bates Clark, Thorstein Veblen, Irving Fisher, Paul
Samuelson, and John Kenneth Galbraith, to name but a few. This
volume has something for everyone interested in the history of
economic thought, the nexus of American economic thought and
American economic history, the fusion of American economics and
philosophy, and the history of science.
From the British Empire to the WTO, imperialism and its political
economy have turned the world upside down. This volume of original
essays by internationally noted scholars traces the spread of
imperialism and capitalism and demonstrates that globalization is
not a New Millennium phenomenon, but rather one with classic roots
as well as contemporary reverberations.
Get up to speed with the future of logic switch design with this
indispensable overview of the most promising successors to modern
CMOS transistors. Learn how to overcome existing design challenges
using novel device concepts, presented using an in-depth,
accessible, tutorial-style approach. Drawing on the expertise of
leading researchers from both industry and academia, and including
insightful contributions from the developers of many of these
alternative logic devices, new concepts are introduced and
discussed from a range of different viewpoints, covering all the
necessary theoretical background and developmental context.
Covering cutting-edge developments with the potential to overcome
existing limitations on transistor performance, such as tunneling
field-effect transistors (TFETs), alternative charge-based devices,
spin-based devices, and more exotic approaches, this is essential
reading for academic researchers, professional engineers, and
graduate students working with semiconductor devices and
technology.
This is a study of industrial unrest in the cotton industry at a
time when the economy was on the threshold of mid-Victorian
prosperity, and when Chartism was still much more than a memory.
The town of Preston was the crucial battlefield, and here the
masters and men fought out a bitter trial of strength. The strike
of 1853-54 closed the Preston cotton industry for seven months, and
disrupted production in many other towns in Lancashire. Against the
implacable opposition of the masters, the strikers toured the
country to organize support, and raised GBP100,000 in subscriptions
from their fellow operatives. The dispute featured prominently in
the national and provincial press, and the weavers' delegates,
notably George Cowell and Mortimer Grimshaw, became celebrities
overnight. After five months, the employers brought in blackleg
labour, and when the detested `knobsticks' failed to break the
strike they had the operatives' leaders arrested. These moves did
not deter the cotton workers, who were forced back to work only
when their financial reserves were exhausted. Their campaign ended
defiantly, as it had begun, with cries of `Ten Per Cent still, and
no surrender'. This book is their story.
