Responsive Harmony in the <i>Zhuangzi</i> by Luyao Li

“…It examines how Zhuangzian harmony offers a solution to the potential risks of domination that harmony may pose to individual freedom. It first challenges Chenyang Li’s distinction between Confucian “active harmony” (主动和谐) and Daoist “passive harmony” (被动和谐), arguing that the “passive” label fails to capture the characteristic of Zhuangzian harmony. …”

“Key to the highway”: blues records and the great migration by Louis Mazzari

“…The paper will explore blues music as an expression of the fluidity of African American society and culture during the Great Depression.While avoiding direct protest, blues singers and musicians—first women, later men—crafted an art form and employed the technology of the phonograph to encourage freedom of movement and choice. At the moment the “race record” industry was being born, and black farmers and families were quietly picking up and leaving the South, the music they traveled with was the blues. …”

Vers une caractérisation synthétique des régimes monétaires en économie capitaliste : conceptualisation et jalons pour une application au cas du régime monétaire européen by Vittorio Mazzotta

“…We arrive at a synthetic characterization of a monetary regime articulated in two layers: the first constituting the institutional frame regulating the conflict between industrial capital and financial capital and the second corresponding to a freedom space useful to the regime to reproduce itself in normal times and maintain its state in time of crisis. …”

The dark side of double-tensor multiplets by L. Andrianopoli, G. Casale, L. Ravera, A. Santambrogio

“…These multiplets can be obtained from hypermultiplets by Hodge-dualizing half of their scalars, and feature an off-shell matching of bosonic and fermionic degrees of freedom. Despite this fact, the supersymmetry algebra results to close only on-shell. …”

CYBERPUNK – GAME – POETRY: Rostislav Amelin’s “SimStab” by Daniil Leiderman, Mark Lipovetsky

“…Both the poem, game and their shared text embody spaces of utopia reliant on repressed sites of formless abjection, which paradoxically become a source of anarchic freedom. Thus, in “SimStab” the ludic algorithmic with its procedural rhetoric (Ian Bogost) creates spaces of formlessness which repeats the liberatory promise of cyberpunk literature. …”
