Kelompok 5 : Teori Konsumsi

In human life, materialism dominates. Human wants are unlimited, so there are various efforts to satisfy human desires. In fact, humans have weaknesses and shortcomings, so not all desires must be fulfilled. Islam as rahmatan lil alamin guarantees that resources can be distributed fairly. One of the efforts to ensure fair distribution of resources is to regulate how consumption patterns are in accordance with Islamic sharia which has been determined by the Al-Quran and As-Sunnah. Human desire to fulfill their needs has given birth to the concept of consumption theory.

“超人類主義”是主體形而上學的新形式

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English. Transhumanism is a contemporary form of Western “subject metaphysics” that combines the dual elements of Cartesianism and Nietzsche's “metaphysics of will.” The essence of Eros is the human desire for totality, which is interlinked with the secret desire for today's “human enhancement” technology. The Confucian idea of “the unity of heaven and man”（天人合一）can solve many problems in the debate between biological conservatism and bioprogressivism. The ideological foundation of this idea in Laozi's and Zhuangzi's thought should be taken seriously. Recognition of human limitations is an important aspect of traditional Confucian—Taoist wisdom, but human enhancement technology is in essence a tool for “excessive reduction”.

Existential Psychoanalysis and Sociogeny

This article explores Sartre’s existential psychoanalysis as a phenomenological method for apprehending the fundamental project of the existent through an examination of the anonymous features of human desire. In grasping the anonymity underlying the “I want,” existential psychoanalysis seeks the meaning of freedom from a standpoint of alterity. I then analyze Fanon’s Black Skin White Masks as a work of existential psychoanalysis which hinges on his use of “sociogeny” to diagnose the alienation of Black existents. Finally, I conclude by examining the implications of a Fanonian existential psychoanalysis for anti-racism through a discussion of Michael Monahan’s critical reflections on the notion of being nonracist.

PENGATURAN MENGENAI SATWA SEBAGAI UPAYA PENCEGAHAN POTENSI PANDEMI DI MASA DEPAN

Humans have been hit by pandemics several times during the history of humanity. Several pandemics have resulted in very significant human casualties. The Spanish flu in 1918 had an estimated toll of up to 50 million people. In 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic has infected humans with more than 100,000,000 infected victims and reached more than 200 countries with more than 2,000,000 human victims. Almost all pandemics are caused by disease mutations from animals to humans, which are called zoonoses. The human desire to live a better life and the desire to rule the universe by killing animals. This research is a normalitve juridical study. This research concludes that animal law is needed in line with environmental law to protect humans based on an axiological approach. In addition to protecting, this law also serves to limit human freedom in behavior.Manusia telah dilanda beberapa kali pandemi selama sejarah kemanusiaan. Beberapa pandemik telah mengakibatkan jumlah korban yang sangat signifikan pada manusia. Spanish flu pada tahun 1918 telah mengakibatkan korban diperkirakan berjumlah hingga 50 juta manusia. Pada tahun 2020, pandemi Covid-19 telah menyangkit manusia dengan korban yang terinfeksi lebih dari 100.000.000 manusia dan menjangkau lebih dari 200 negara dengan korban lebih dari 2.000.000 manusia. Hampir semua pandemi diakibatkan oleh mutasi penyakit dari binatang ke manusia atau disebut dengan zoonosis. Keinginan manusia untuk hidup lebih baik dan keinginan untuk menguasai alam semesta dengan melakukan pembunuhan terhadap binatang. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian yuridis normalitf. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa diperlukannya hukum satwa sejalan dengan hukum lingkungan untuk melindungi manusia berdasarkan pendekatan aksiologi. Selain untuk melindungi, hukum ini juga berfungsi untuk membatasi kebebasan manusia dalam bertingkah laku.

Starbucks and Aristotle

Aristotle argued that democratic participation in decision-making rests on informal encounters between citizens, because these interactions help to build civic friendships. In modern-day North America, the Starbucks corporation has posited itself as a “third place”, a space other than work and home that acts as a theatre for the development of civic friendships. In this essay, I investigate whether visiting Starbucks allows customers to connect to their larger community by providing the opportunity for meaningful social interaction. While Starbucks’ marketing strategies capitalize on the human desire for belonging, its expensive brand succeeds in differentiating citizens by their socioeconomic status, thereby undermining social unity. Furthermore, the environment in Starbucks stores emphasize experiences of personal pleasure rather than the enjoyment of community, as evidenced by the lack of authentic civic dialogue occurring within these spaces. As it encourages customers to settle for less than the formation of civic virtue, Starbucks’ commodification of community may challenge the flourishing of contemporary democracy.

Sisyphean Unproductivity in Narrative Film

This article examines the relationship between labour, productivity and film. The purpose of this intervention is to suggest that narrative film can show us the unproductive tendencies that humans carry within them but that cannot always make themselves known. These leisurely desires erupt as musicality, ecstasy, and the undoing of the self when we carry out the repetitive gestures of work. This article compares Camus's freedom and Georges Bataille's sovereignty as they share an interest in anti-futurity and anti-productivity and it uses these concepts to propose worker's ecstatic escapes from labour as Sisyphean unproductivity. Using this theoretical framework, I carry out a comparative and formal analysis of Sisyphus (Marcell Jankovics, 1974), Modern Times (Charles Chaplin, 1936), The Apartment (Billy Wilder,1960) , Saut ma ville (Chantal Akerman, 1971) and Dancer in the Dark (Lars von Trier, 2000). While the field of film studies has highlighted the role of cinema as a tool for propagating ideologies of productivity, the scenes examined suggest that film also has a history of subverting ideologies of productivity through repetitive, Sisyphean unproductivity. By updating the plight of the Greek hero to 20th and 21st century capitalism, these directors uncover a fundamental, yet impossible, human desire for non-productive activities This re-centering of the unproductive could be useful in future academic re-categorizations of the working class through its desires to not work, that is, it provides preliminary materials for understanding class identities through their deformation, and not just their formation.

Efficacy of Situation Specific Need-Based Micro Approaches of Post Method Pedagogy Application in L2 Learning

In the field of language teaching and learning the theories of chaos and complexity may well be applicable to where various studies and experimentations are growing offshoots in different parts of India. The world of pedagogy falls within the span of the obstinate human desire to excel, to make things significantly superior than before. To realize and harmonize with the needs and culture of an ever-changing world, Man is constantly endeavoring to achieve greater efficacy by capturing the everelusive ultimate ideal in all conceivable spheres. However, in the field of second language teaching and learning process searching for innovative approaches, methods, techniques and pedagogical tools is in a continuous state of fluctuation. The deep investigation and scrutiny of the history of English Language Teaching (ELT) reveals a challenging need to clear the conceptual cobwebs and terminological bedbugs prevalent in the amalgamations, harmonies and discordances between layers of theoretical principles, pedagogic practices and political ideologies (Kumaravadivelu, 1994).

Melancholy and Satan

This chapter presents Baudelaire’s views on the relationship between beauty and melancholy and considers his famous definition of beauty (‘quelque chose d’ardent et de triste […] laissant carrière à la conjecture’) in the context of his radically alternative moral philosophy, embraced under the aegis of Satan. Unlike Chateaubriand and Staël, who associate melancholy historically with the advent of Christianity, Baudelaire sees melancholy as deriving from the irremediable ‘tragedy’ of human desire. Accordingly, his Satan (from the Hebrew for ‘adversary’, ‘he who resists’) is not a representative of evil and sinfulness but combines the Satan of Genesis (inviting humankind to know) with Lucifer, the rebellious angel of light who experienced both heaven and hell. Baudelaire’s Satan therefore stands for a human condition of self-conscious ill-being (‘le Mal’) in which the integrity of poetry as a form of progressive lawgiving lies in the open-eyed, no-holds-barred portrayal of the human experience of desire.
