This essay looks at theotakuphenomenon in terms of the production of consumption (what produces consumption, and what consumption produces) primarily three registers: fictions ofotakuthat stage the repression ofotakudesires and identities in order to form erogenous zones; cultural discourses that pathologizeotakuconsumption; and government policies related to Cool Japan that strive to reconfigureotakuconsumption in terms of markets and self-satisfying subjects. Considering these different registers brings into a focus a neoliberal socius or social being, which allows constant intervention into everyday life in the name of the fragility of the global free market by typologizing and pathologizing consumers.

The recent swing towards a more conservative (Liberal) federal political agenda in Australia parallels similar trends in Canada. A basic tenet of this neo-conservative approach is the reduction of education, health and welfare budgets, along with tax cuts to encourage business and corporate development. Policies are presented within a free market, user pays, corporate framework. Program reductions are justified through an anti professional/reduced government philosophy. This paper analyses the development of the child care system in one province of Canada. The analysis demonstrates that, despite manifold distributions to the child care system, the lack of a constitutional dimension has left the program vulnerable. In the uproar over larger programs, the dismantling of a public system of child care is proceeding quietly and with little protest. Analyses of the activities that predicated this demise present a warning as comparable circumstances arise in Australia.

Abstract Dynamics contrary to the life of the majority mobilized by neo-imperial neo-liberal capitalism evolving toward neo-fascist populism has become virtually invisible to the field of Management/Administration, which is driven by dynamics of appropriation-contention focused on alternatives and transmodern epistemes of the emerging South-East. We analyze this picture of radicalization of global coloniality within the context of counterrevolutionary neoliberalism facing dynamics of dewesternization and decoloniality from a South-North dialogue between Decolonial Theory/Option and Critical Realism. By proposing a critical/decolonial transmodern framework, we unveil dynamics of invisibilization/visibilization against the life of the majority, invisibilized by market sub-theorization and dominant discourse and by the liberal university and its business/management schools. In the end, we propose to recover the expanded relevance of “administration/management” engaged with the majority, through reappropriation dynamics based on de-subalternization of non-market and ‘de-celebration’ of free market.

Abstract Globalization challenges the usefulness of different paradigms of socio-cultural evolution and opens the possibility for their hybridization. In this paper, two paradigms of evolution, the transformational (Spencerian) and the variational / selectionist (Darwinian), as discerned by Fracchia and Lewontin (1999), are examined along with their social theoretical counterparts. Most social theories of development are connected to different evolutionary paradigms in different historical contexts. The transformational paradigm prevailed until the end of the Cold War (e.g. theories of modernization), and the selectionist paradigm, in various theoretical forms, thereafter (e.g. Huntington, Eisenstadt). Most developmental policies today prefer the selectionist paradigm in terms of the neoliberal free market. The transformational paradigm in development policies was predominant in the era of the welfare state in the West, and its counterpart in the era of the statism of the East. Sustainable development in a socio-cultural sense is the youngest and the least consistent policy concept, and it is not founded on the evolution paradigms. The concept was launched by the UN as an attempt at mediating, mostly on the grounds of ecological alarms, between the free-market and statist policies. The author considers the hybridization of these two paradigms to be a proper conceptual foundation of sustainable development. On this premise, he expounds the concept of a culturally oriented sustainable development, arguing that hybrids of developmental policies are more suitable for a decent survival of most countries.

Using panel data from the 17 underdeveloped provinces of China for 2005–2015, the author explored the differential impact of air (environment) quality and government policies on domestic and international visitors. Through econometric model analysis, the authors corroborated that domestic and international visitors react differently to air (environment) quality. In addition, domestic and international tourists have different responses to urbanization and transportation. Marketization is conducive to the development of tourism. Moreover, foreign trade has a positive impact on international tourists. These findings aid local governments to provide additional appropriate tourism development policies.

The essay examines the distinctive nature of neoliberalism in Bangladesh that began under military rule, and analyzes the discursive silences that neoliberal development policies have produced within the NGO sector. It analyzes three major strands that refer to how policies of market liberalization were historically promoted by successive military and democratic governments since independence; the impact of this confluence of market liberalization on the state, NGOs, and the framing of feminist/women’s agendas; and how policies and ideologies of neoliberalism discursively shape public discourses about NGOs, women, and development. The chapter argues that feminist/women’s agendas have been shaped by liberal ideas of empowerment, which have been reworked through neoliberal models of economic empowerment that have silenced more critical discourses questioning free market policies and their deleterious effects on women’s labor and lives.
