Series Statement: BASEES/Routledge Series on Russian and East European Studies

Content: Central Europe is a vague and ambiguous term, more to do with outlook and a state of mind than with a firmly defined geographical region. In the immediate aftermath of the collapse of the Iron Curtain, Central Europeansconsideredthemselvesto beculturally part of the West, which had been politically handicapped by the Eastern Soviet bloc. More recently, and with European Union membership, Central Europeans are increasingly thinking of themselves as politically part of the West, but culturally part of the East. This book, with contributions from a large number of scholars from the region, explores the concept of Central Europe and a number of other political concepts from an openly Central European perspective. It considers a wide range of issues including politics, nationalism, democracy, and the impact of culture, art and history. Overall, the book casts a great deal of light on the complex nature of Central Europe.

Series Statement: Lille-Thèses

Content: L’analyse des écrits politiques de Pasolini peut nous aider à définir l’impact que sa pensée a eu sur son époque. Cet impact est un exemple du rôle que l’intellectuel peut jouer comme conscience critique de son temps, et cet exemple présuppose la recherche d’un cadre théorique où situer l’intellectuel dans un monde dominé par la puissance des médias et leur capacité à niveler l’opinion et même la pensée. Dans une société où l'intellectuel est essentiellement un clerc qui domine l'espace public défini par les mass-médias et surtout par la télévision, il peut être utile de revenir à la naissance de cette civilisation, avant que la société de l'image prenne le pas sur la société de la parole. Pasolini ressent, analyse et critique cette évolution : il en voyait les dangers et il savait aussi en exploiter les ressorts, ce qui rend actuel son héritage. Sa condition de marginal, de paria, dans la culture italienne de l’époque lui donne un point de vue extérieur sur son monde, mais sa subjectivité s’imposait par un discours polémique et hérétique. Son regard critique et sans compassion sur le monde et sur lui-même se déploie dans ses écrits politiques selon trois thèmes principaux qui sont aussi les facettes de sa personnalité : la passion pédagogique, la sensibilité à la forme artistique et l’engagement socio-politique

Content: The analysis of Pasolini's political writings can help us define the impact his thought had in his time. This impact is an example of the role the intellectual can play as a critical consciousness actor of his time and this example presupposes the search of a theoretical frame in which the intellectual evolves in a world that is dominated by the power of mass media and their ability to equalize the opinion and even the thought. In a society where the intellectual is mainly a scholar who stands out in the public field that is ruled by the mass media and especially the TV, it may be interesting to come back to the birth of thiscivilisation before the image-ruled society outclassed the word-ruled one. Pasolini feels, analyses and criticises this evolution : he could see how dangerous it was and also knew howto exploit its forces, what makes his legacy topical. Being an outcast, a pariah in the Italian cultural world of that time enables him to have an external point of view on his world , yet, his controversial and heretical discourse made his subjectivity prevail. The pitiless and critical eye he had on the world and himself develops in his political writings according to three main themes that are also representative of his many-faceted personality : his passion for pedagogy, his sensitivity for the artistic shape and his socio-political commitment
