Argentina: Student Tourism - (USA)
Argentina: Student Tourism Santiago Aramburu and Gonzalo Casanova Ferro For ever students There are several theories that explain the origin of Tourism. Some of them spring from an anthropological fate, others speak about a psychic motivation and finally others try to impose a historical reading. From this last trend other variants also spring; two great lines run through the theoretical frame of tho

SCH Readers say, ‘Draft Them!,’ Part One - (USA)
We have received significant offline nominations since we posted our BUZZ piece on One Party Rule yesterday ( Our BUZZ pieces are the equivalent of an editorial or Op/Ed–the rest of our work is intended as news . . . and a hell of a lot of people even question that–I say that only in case you haven’t been reading us long ). Most of these nominations came from folks who did not want to use the comment thread for whatever reason. To begin, yesterday SCH sent an email to around 6

These days I am trying to get into this “NBA” where the players make money. Also watching the BBC comedy “Spaced” starring Simon Pegg and reading Slavery by Another Name: the Re-Enslavement of Black Americans from the Civil War to World War II . Light reading, I know. Hey, the author Blackmon won a Pulitzer for it.

Time For A Change Of Venue Part One - (USA)
It is important to point out right now that we are hedonists. We enjoy sex and we enjoy sex with other people as recreation. However... There is a seedy element to the swing lifestyle that will not go away. Misunderstood as it is, swinging carries some stigmas that are perpetuated by certain members of the community. Case and point-the party we attended last night. The parties we

Chaos Theory - (USA)
As long as there's a Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, I am able to plan a day like this: Rod Humble lecture, visit to Alcatraz, Jason Rohrer lecture. That was my Tuesday at GDC. Sometimes you need to take a break from games for a while and go to a prison. Alcatraz used to be a pretty grim scene. Tour highlights include the spot where the suicidal leapt into the ocean and dashed their brains on the rocks, and the hallway where inmates and guards shot and killed one another. The fl

Republican Recreation - (USA)
By KleinheiderPosted on May 3, 2009 at 11:03 pm So the GOP remains but it remains still a hollow shell in many parts of the country, and that’s the kind of situation perfect for non-establishment groups and non-major parties to move in and recreate the party from the ground up, especially in the U.S. major cities and metro areas outside the South. That’s how political change is made within the two-party system and its been true for so many nominees and Presidents over the past century.permalink

Milton Friedman's Role and His Influence on the Two Worst Regimes in US History - (USA)
As recently as 2005, Milton Friedman was still singing the praises of utterly failed economic policies that had been put to the test by Ronald Reagan and Bushes Sr and Jr. Friedman's policies have been found tragically lacking. Friedman is enamored with policies that bankrupted the nation, made terrorism worse, created the longest, deepest recession since the crash of 1929, exported jobs abroad and resulted in the destruction of the American labor movement and, as a result, the loss of employee

Saga of troubled Marcus Garvey Centre comes to an end - (USA)
By Allison Hanes, National Post The Marcus Garvey Centre’s troubled tenure in a derelict city-owned building has come to an end, closing the book on a well-intentioned arrangement gone awry. The group failed to sign a one-year lease with the city by the April 24 deadline set by Toronto council, so officials moved in and changed the locks on the Rivalda Road building occupied by the Marcus Garvey Centre for Leadership and Education for a decade.

A Halfhearted Critique of Democracy - (USA)
Or maybe it’s a halfhearted defense. I’m not sure. Responding to Will , Mencius Moldbug writes : There’s an easy way to define democracy: every adult subject of the State is deputized, drafted or dragooned as a part-time government official. The sum of these petty officials constitutes a gigantic committee, holding the exact same formal authority as Charles Stuart . (And much less actual authority. Though if Charles’ powers were so absolute as his murderers pretended - well, to quote

New York Honors Che Guevara with a Statue On Friday November 21st, while strolling through Central Park’s Doris C. Freedman Plaza, Commentary Magazine’s online editor Abe Greenwald noticed a statue and did a double take. “Is that…Che Guevara?” Indeed! There was no mistaking it: a statue of “El Che” by German artist, Christian Jankowski. Upon investigating the matter, Abe Greenwald learned that, “the sculpture is not intended to depict Che Guevara,” but rather a street performer from Barc
