Stakeholders Explain Why Grain Imports Are Unlikely in the Near Future

As global markets continue to reel from economic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions, stakeholders within the agricultural sector have cast doubt on the likelihood of significant grain imports in the near future. This skepticism is rooted in a complex web of factors including domestic production levels, international trade policies, supply chain disruptions, and concerns about food security.…

"[Alice Perrers] was an outsider to the exalted social and political world in which she found herself after becoming Edward III's mistress in the 1360s. Lacking any gentle or noble connections within her family, she had no natural network of political supporters in the royal household and council. She was dangerously dependent on her association with the other members of the court covine who were themselves exposed and disgraced in the Good Parliament. And if the testimonies given against her by other courtiers in 1377 are anything to go by, she had a knack for alienating many of those with whom she came into contact in the royal household. Furthermore, while significant numbers of single and widowed women in her generation were able to pursue independent and successful careers in trade, Alice's strategy of developing an extensive landed estate brought her into contact with members of the nobility, the gentry, and the church who were far less conditioned than their counterparts in the mercantile world to disputing with self-made, independent women. The effusion of misogyny in the Good Parliament, represented by the extraordinary preamble to the ordinance against women's practice of maintenance, speaks powerfully to this deep-seated social and gendered prejudice."

вага смерті

Останнім часом спостерігається тенденція цінувати лише життя і заперечувати чи відкидати смерть. Буває багато випадків, коли ми змушені жити такими словами, як «Недобре, якщо ти помреш» або «Живи, щось хороше станеться, якщо ти залишишся живим». Тут не слід неправильно розуміти те, що ми не зневажаємо життя. Навпаки, смерть і право вибору смерті повинні мати таку ж вагу, як життя і право жити. Життя неймовірно важке і має незмірну цінність, і смерть також неймовірно важка і має незмірну цінність. Будь ласка, уникайте будь-яких непорозумінь щодо цього питання.

The Unsustainable Acceleration: Analyzing Colonialism, Nationalism, Imperialism, and Capitalism through the Lens of Paul Virilio's Philosophy

Paul Virilio’s philosophies, particularly his theories on speed, technology, and the politics of space, provide a unique lens through which we can analyze the interconnectivity and unsustainability of colonialism, nationalism, imperialism, and capitalism. Let’s delve into each of these concepts and their interrelations, as well as consider a sustainable alternative system. Interconnectivity and…

The term [alterity] was adopted by philosophers as an alternative to ‘otherness’ to register a change in the Western perceptions of the relationship between consciousness and the world. Since Descartes, individual consciousness had been taken as the privileged starting point for consciousness, and ‘the “other” appears in these [post Enlightenment] philosophies as a reduced “other,” as an epistemological question’ (xix). That is, in a concept of the human in which everything stems from the notion that ‘I think, therefore I am’, the chief concern with the other is to be able to answer questions such as ‘How can I know the other?’, ‘How can other minds be known?’ The term ‘alterity’ shifts the focus of analysis away from these philosophic concerns with otherness – the ‘epistemic other’, the other that is only important to the extent to which it can be known – to the more concrete ‘moral other’ – the other who is actually located in a political, cultural, linguistic or religious context (xix). This is a key feature of changes in the concept of subjectivity, because, whether seen in the context of ideology, psychoanalysis or discourse, the ‘construction’ of the subject itself can be seen to be inseparable from the construction of its others.
