{"product_id":"technologies-of-critique-9780823286737","title":"Technologies of Critique","description":"Critique--a program of thought as well as a disposition toward the world--is a crucial resource for politics and thought today, yet it is again and again instrumentalized by institutional frames and captured by market logics. \u003ci\u003eTechnologies of Critique\u003c\/i\u003e elaborates a critical practice that eludes such capture. Building on Chile's history of dissident artists and the central entangling of politics and aesthetics, Thayer engages continental philosophical traditions, from Aristotle, Descartes and Heidegger through Walter Benjamin and Gilles Deleuze, and in implicit conversation with the Judith Butler, Roberto Esposito, and Bruno Latour, to help pinpoint the technologies and media through which art intervenes critically in socio-political life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Willy Thayer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fordham University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780823286737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWilly Thayer (Author) \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWilly Thayer\u003c\/b\u003e is a prominent a prominent Chilean philosopher, art critic, and media theorist.
