Slowdown in the People’s Republic of China: Structural Factors and Implications for Asia (ed. Justin Yifu Lin, et al, 2018-3-27)
The economy of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has surged almost 10% annually since economic reforms began in 1978, ensuring the PRC’s position as an engine of global growth. But by 2016 growth slowed to less than 7%. Is it a structural or cyclical slowdown? If structural, the implications for growth, trade, and investment in other Asian economies will be significant.

So of what use is Derrida’s analysis? He exposes how the meaning of a text assumes various conventions and contains its own codes. He shows how a text achieves meaning, rather than what it means. He shows how the text is simplified. This method of limiting and manipulating the rich scope of language has always been the case, and is discernable amongst the earliest philosophers. Derrida illustrates this with an example from Plato’s Phaedrus. In this, Plato relates the myth of the ancient Egyptian god Theuth, who explained to the king of Egypt the benefit of teaching his subjects how to write. This would enable his subjects to improve their memory and increase their wisdom. Theuth claimed: “My invention is a medicine [pharmakon] for fortifying both memory and wisdom.” But the king objected that writing would produce the very opposite effect: “This invention will produce forgetfulness in the souls of those who have learned it because they will not need to exercise their memories, being able to rely upon what is written.” Theuth had merely discovered a pharmakon for reminding, not for memory itself. Similarly with wisdom. The king pointed out that writing would merely produce the appearance of wisdom, not its reality. It would encourage the delusion of wisdom, not actual inner wisdom.
Derrida points out that Plato’s myth contains a typical use of binary opposites, of either/or. Either writing is good for memory, or it isn’t. Yet it could in fact be both. Derrida now focuses on the word pharmakon. In Greek this means “medicine,” “cure,” or “potion.” (This is the origin of pharmacy.) But pharmakon can also mean “poison,” “bewitchment,” or “enchanting spell.” The word pharmakon thus covers both sides of the argument. Writing can strengthen the power of memory, and it can also drug its powers. The meaning of pharmakon becomes unstable in this context, and this instability introduces différence. Identity, binary opposites, either/or – these are eliminated, and instead we have the ambiguity of difference. The logic of Plato’s argument now begins to unravel, and instead we have undecidability.

The Hundred-Year Marathon: China's Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower (Michael Pillsbury 2015)
One of the U.S. government's leading China experts reveals the hidden strategy fueling that country's rise – and how Americans have been seduced into helping China overtake us as the world's leading superpower.
For more than forty years, the United States has played an indispensable role helping the Chinese government build a booming economy, develop its scientific and military capabilities, and take its place on the world stage, in the belief that China's rise will bring us cooperation, diplomacy, and free trade. But what if the "China Dream" is to replace us, just as America replaced the British Empire, without firing a shot?
Based on interviews with Chinese defectors and newly declassified, previously undisclosed national security documents, The Hundred-Year Marathon reveals China's secret strategy to supplant the United States as the world's dominant power, and to do so by 2049, the one-hundredth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic. Michael Pillsbury, a fluent Mandarin speaker who has served in senior national security positions in the U.S. government since the days of Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, draws on his decades of contact with the "hawks" in China's military and intelligence agencies and translates their documents, speeches, and books to show how the teachings of traditional Chinese statecraft underpin their actions. He offers an inside look at how the Chinese really view America and its leaders – as barbarians who will be the architects of their own demise.
Pillsbury also explains how the U.S. government has helped – sometimes unwittingly and sometimes deliberately – to make this "China Dream" come true, and he calls for the United States to implement a new, more competitive strategy toward China as it really is, and not as we might wish it to be. The Hundred-Year Marathon is a wake-up call as we face the greatest national security challenge of the twenty-first century. (amazon)

Bruce Herzog (2018) Kohut’s Reluctance to Pathologize: Replacing Objective Authority With Innovative Compassion, Psychoanalysis, Self and Context, 13:2, 99-118
The limit of the reluctance to pathologize lies in the
therapist’s limit of tolerance of human follies, and limit of endurance to sit through the human
tragedies. No words. You stand before it. You burst into laughter, and you are awed. You cannot pathologize tragedies, can you? But can you sit it through?

how to use genet properly
To do a proper existential psychoanalysis
You’ve got to love him/her
You’ve got to respect his/her fate
You’ve got to do the existential work first, long
enough
Only near the end, of that long long dark night, should
you do a little bit, about psychoanalysis
And, most likely, and properly, you should refrain from doing even that
little bit
And just let him/her be

Researching Beneath the Surface: Psycho-Social Research Methods in Practice (Explorations in Psycho-social Studies Series), by Simon Clarke, Routledge, 2009
This book offers an overview of the rapidly expanding field
of Psycho-Social research. Drawing on aspects of discourse psychology,
continental philosophy and anthropological and neuro-scientific understandings
of the emotions, psycho-social studies has emerged as an embryonic new paradigm
in the human sciences. Psycho-social studies uses psychoanalytic concepts and
principles to illuminate core issues within the social sciences. The present
volume contributes to the development of the new research methodologies in a
number of ways. It is written largely from the point of view of practitioners
who are also researchers. Although contributors draw largely upon
object-relations traditions in psychoanalysis, other influences are also
present, particularly from continental philosophy and the sociology of the
emotions. It develops an approach to epistemology - how we know what we know,
which is strongly informed by a living approach to psychoanalysis, not just as
a theory but as a way of being in the world - that is as a stance. It examines,
in great depth and from a number of perspectives, the complex psycho-social
dynamics that characterise the research encounter. And finally, it demonstrates
a number of specific methodologies at work and the authors learning from this
experience. (amazon) (kindle 2012-11-24)
Further Researching Beneath the Surface: Psycho-Social Research Methods in Practice - Volume 2 (ed by Anne-Marie Cummins, Nigel Williams, Routledge, 2018-6-4)
Contributions in this volume cover ways of knowing,
the dynamics of research encounters, new methods of psycho-social inquiry, and
the first-hand experience of being a researcher. Since the first volume
of Researching Beneath the Surface was published by Karnac in
2009, psycho-social research has become more established but is also more
scrutinised by a new generation of researchers, practitioners, and clinicians.
This volume offers a timely exploration of the latest developments in psycho-social
research, bringing together a series of papers in which both longstanding
contributors to the field and new researchers explore tensions, possibilities,
and innovations in psycho-socially inspired research.
Showcasing advances in psycho-social research
methods, the book focuses on methodological dilemmas, innovations in method and
methodology, and on experiences of conducting psycho-social research in
challenging contexts. It also focusses on the contested but pivotal role of
psychoanalysis in psycho-social research and explores what can be added by
transdisciplinary use of deep ecology, continental philosophy, and relational
approaches as alternative or supplementary ways of knowing.
Further Researching Beneath the Surface:
Psycho-social Research Methods in Practice offers fresh insight into the practical and emotional
issues of conducting oneself as a psycho-social researcher and learning from
experience. It will be of great interest to psycho-social, qualitative,
organisational, and psychoanalytically-oriented researchers, as well as
postgraduate students in these fields. (amazon)
Ferenczi’s Influence on Contemporary Psychoanalytic Traditions: Lines of Development―-Evolution of Theory and Practice over the Decades (ed Aleksandar Dimitrijevic, Gabriele Cassulo, Jay Frankel, Routledge, 2018-6-20)
This collection covers all the topics relevant for
understanding the importance of Sandor Ferenczi and his influence on
contemporary psychoanalysis. Pre-eminent Ferenczi scholars were solicited to
contribute succint reviews of their fields of expertise.
The book is divided in five sections. 'The
historico-biographical' describes Ferenczi's childhood and student days, his
marriage, brief analyses with Freud, his correspondences and contributions to
daily press in Budapest, list of his patients' true identities, and a paper
about his untimely death. 'The development of Ferenczi's ideas' reviews his
ideas before his first encounter with psychoanalysis, his relationship with
peers, friendship with Groddeck, emancipation from Freud, and review of the
importance of his Clinical Diary. The third section reviews
Ferenczi's clinical concepts and work: trauma, unwelcome child, wise baby,
identification with aggressor, mutual analysis, and many others. In 'Echoes',
we follow traces of Ferenczi's influence on virtually all traditions in contemporary
psychoanalysis: interpersonal, independent, Kleinian, Lacanian, relational,
etc. (amazon)
Jean Genet (1910-1986)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Genet#List_of_works
By 1949, Genet had completed five novels, three plays, and numerous poems, many controversial for their explicit and often deliberately provocative portrayal of homosexuality and criminality. Sartre wrote a long analysis of Genet's existential development (from vagrant to writer), entitled Saint Genet (1952), which was anonymously published as the first volume of Genet's complete works. Genet was strongly affected by Sartre's analysis and did not write for the next five years.
換句話說 沙特對他的分析 剝奪了他的創造力
Between 1955 and 1961, Genet wrote three more plays as well as an essay called "What Remains of a Rembrandt Torn into Four Equal Pieces and Flushed Down the Toilet", on which hinged Jacques Derrida's analysis of Genet in his seminal work Glas. During this time, Genet became emotionally attached to Abdallah Bentaga, a tightrope walker. However, following a number of accidents and his suicide in 1964, Genet entered a period of depression, and even attempted suicide himself.[2]
From the late 1960s, starting with an homage to Daniel Cohn-Bendit after the events of May 1968, Genet became politically active. He participated in demonstrations drawing attention to the living conditions of immigrants in France. Genet was censored in the United States in 1968 and later expelled when they refused him a visa. In an interview with Edward de Grazia, professor of law and First Amendment lawyer, Genet discusses the time he went through Canada for the Chicago congress. He entered without a visa and left with no issues.[3]
In 1970, the Black Panthers invited him to the United States, where he stayed for three months giving lectures, attended the trial of their leader, Huey Newton, and published articles in their journals. Later the same year he spent six months in Palestinian refugee camps, secretly meeting Yasser Arafat near Amman. Profoundly moved by his experiences in the United States and Jordan, Genet wrote a final lengthy memoir about his experiences, Prisoner of Love, which would be published posthumously.
Genet also supported Angela Davis and George Jackson, as well as Michel Foucault and Daniel Defert's Prison Information Group. He worked with Foucault and Sartre to protest police brutality against Algerians in Paris, a problem persisting since the Algerian War of Independence, when beaten bodies were to be found floating in the Seine. Genet expresses his solidarity with the Red Army Faction (RAF) of Andreas Baader and Ulrike Meinhof, in the article "Violence et brutalité", published in Le Monde, 1977.
In September 1982, Genet was in Beirut when the massacres took place in the Palestinian camps of Sabra and Shatila. In response, Genet published "Quatre heures à Chatila" ("Four Hours in Shatila"), an account of his visit to Shatila after the event. In one of his rare public appearances during the later period of his life, at the invitation of Austrian philosopher Hans Köchler, he read from his work during the inauguration of an exhibition on the massacre of Sabra and Shatila organized by the International Progress Organization in Vienna, Austria, on 19 December 1983.[4]

What Remains of a Rembrandt Torn into Four Equal Pieces and Flushed Down the Toilet (Jean Genet 1988)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kv2-p2nKknFlajLog2uKeOSyhqEKRNgO/view?usp=sharing
Following the structure of Jean Genet's Ce qui est resté d'un Rembrandt déchiré en petits carrés bien réguliers, et foutu aux chiottes ["What Remains of a Rembrandt Torn Into Four Equal Pieces and Flushed Down the Toilet"], the book is written in two columns in different type sizes. The left column is about Hegel, the right column is about Genet. Each column weaves its way around quotations of all kinds, both from the works discussed and from dictionaries—Derrida's "side notes",[2] described as "marginalia, supplementary comments, lengthy quotations, and dictionary definitions."[3] Sometimes words are cut in half by a quotation which may last several pages.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glas_(book)
In Glas, Derrida’s intertwined study of Hegel and Genet, Derrida dismissed Sartre’s phenomenology as a “misontology”, a perspective that allowed Sartre only superficial access to Genet’s writing; Derrida instead championed his deconstructionist perspective as allowing for a genuine immersion in Genet’s texts (Derrida 1986: 28b).

The Declared Enemy: Texts and Interviews (Meridian: Crossing Aesthetics) (Jean Genet 2004)
This posthumous work brings together articles, interviews, statements, prefaces, manifestos, and speeches dating from 1964 to 1985 (just before Genet's death in 1986). These texts bear witness to the many political causes and groups with which Genet felt an affinity, including May ’68 and the treatment of immigrants in France, but especially the Black Panthers and the Palestinians. We follow him from the Chicago Democratic Convention (where he met William Burroughs and Alan Ginsberg) to Yale University, where he gave the famous May Day Speech in support of the Black Panthers, to Jordan and the Palestinian camps. Along the way, Genet finds allies (George Jackson, Angela Davis, Leyla Shahid, Tahar Ben Jelloun). And, of course, enemies. Between passionate enmity and passionate affinity, Genet speaks for a politics of protest, with an uncompromising outrage that, today, might seem on the verge of being forgotten. The texts are accompanied by detailed editorial notes. (amazon)

Fragments of the Artwork (Meridian, Crossing Aesthetics) (Jean Genet 2003)
Fragments of the Artwork brings together Jean Genet's critical writings and open letters on art and aesthetic issues. This collection testifies to Genet's enormous influence on the modern theater, on the development of the novel, and on the representation of crime, sex, gender, and race. In lyrical essays and one candid interview, these works present an untutored, original, defiant Genet, displaying his provocative insights and acuities on a range of topics.
Genet wrestles with the athletic genius of Rembrandt, adores the intricate criminal resurrections of Dostoevsky, challenges our easy readings of Brecht, and, in what is one of the most exalting art historical essays ever written, provides us with his detailed personal account of the work and presence of Alberto Giacometti. Altogether these essays comprise a series of engrossing meditations on the central motives of theatricality and art. (amazon)

Glassery, by , Gregory L. Ulmer, Jacques Derrida, University of Nebraska Press,1986
Glassary is a companion volume to Glas.
It offers English readers fuller access to the masterwork of Jacques Derrida,
the leading philosopher in France.
Derrida is important for his investigations
of language, philosophy, and writing. He has perforated the boundaries between
academic disciplines, has demonstrated the theological underpinnings of
apparently atheological philosophies, and has thrown into question traditional
notions about the "ownership" of ideas. Glas exemplifies
Derrida's methodology of reading and his central philosophical and literary
concerns. The reader fascinated by its complexities will appreciate the
assistance of Glassary. Written by the chief translator of Glas,
John P. Leavey, Jr., it includes an essay by Gregory Ulmer and a foreword by
Jacques Derrida.
The book provides all of the apparatus a reader of Glas might
immediately desire, including notes on difficult or ambiguous passages,
identifications of allusions and puns, locations of citations, and translations
of passages in languages other than French. But Leavey does not stop there. He
includes a glossary of use to readers of Glas in any language
and essays that relate it to Derrida's texts and to the modern French critical
enterprise as a whole. Leavey's essay focuses on Glas and
literature and philosophy; Ulmer's on Glas and psychoanalysis.

iWar: War and Peace in the Information Age (Bill Gertz 2017)
New York Times bestselling author and veteran Washington Times columnist explains how the United States can beat China, Russia, Iran, and ISIS in the coming information-technology wars.
America is at war, but most of its citizens don’t know it.
Covert information warfare is being waged by world powers, rogue states—such as Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea—and even terrorist groups like ISIS. This conflict has been designed to defeat and ultimately destroy the United States.
This new type of warfare is part of the Information Age that has come to dominate our lives. In iWar, Bill Gertz describes how technology has completely revolutionized modern warfare, how the Obama administration failed to meet this challenge, and what we can and must do to catch up and triumph over this timely and important struggle.

Adieux: A Farewell to Sartre (Simone de Beauvoir 1981/1985) (1908-1986)
Simone de Beauvoir’s account of the last ten years of Jean-Paul Sartre’s life (1905-1980) provides a focus for understanding one of the greatest thinkers of the twentieth century. But the book, consisting of both a year-by-year account of Sartre’s last decade and a conversation between him and de Beauvoir about his life and work, is more than just a philosophical examination. It is also a personal dialogue of astonishing frankness that illuminates one of the most famous and complex relationships of the twentieth century. (amazon)

病得比較輕的那個
less sick 表示還是有病
只是比較輕
你說誰決定的
關於輕重
我說單憑你問這個問題
你就病得不輕
你說萬一兩個人
病得一樣重
或輪流輕重
我說一樣重
不是自然常態
輪流就好辦了
反正輕的那個
就是治療者
你想了一會說
所以做治療者
就是要不停尋覓
找比自己病重的人
把他當病人
我說這位同學
你可以畢業了
你會是一個傑出的治療者

Sophie Tucker - Some of These Days (1926)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3heCSPJrO70
Some of these days
You'll miss your honey
Some of these days
You'll feel so lonely
You'll miss my hugging
You'll miss my kisses
You'll miss me, honey
When you go away
I feel so lonely
Just for you only
For you know, honey
You've had your way
And when you leave me
I know you'll grieve me
You'll miss your little honey
Some of these days
Roquentin spends a good deal of time in a cafe which has a juke-box with a record of Sophie Tucker singing Some of These Days.

Hope Now: The 1980 Interviews (Jean-Paul Sartre, Benny Lévy, University of Chicago Press, 2007)
In March of 1980, Le Nouvel Observateur published the final interviews between the philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, then blind and debilitated, and his young assistant, Benny Lévy. Readers immediately denounced the interviews as distorted and fraudulent for portraying a Sartre who had abandoned his leftist convictions, rejected his most intimate friends, and cast aside his fundamental beliefs in favor of a messianic Judaism. Sartre's supporters argued that it was his orthodox interlocutor, Lévy, who had twisted the words of the ailing philosopher.
Yet, shortly before his death, Sartre confirmed the authenticity of the interviews and their puzzling content. Here presented in translation, the interviews are framed by two provocative essays by Benny Lévy, accompanied by a comprehensive introduction from noted Sartre authority Ronald Aronson, which places the interviews in biographical and philosophical perspective to demonstrate how they confirm and contribute to Sartre's overall philosophy. This absorbing volume at last contextualizes and elucidates the final thoughts of a brilliant and influential mind. (amazon)

Past Tense: A Jack Reacher Novel (Lee Child, 2018-11-5)
Jack Reacher hits the pavement and sticks out his thumb. He plans to follow the sun on an epic trip across America, from Maine to California. He doesn’t get far. On a country road deep in the New England woods, he sees a sign to a place he has never been: the town where his father was born. He thinks, What’s one extra day? He takes the detour.
The next morning, in the city clerk’s office, Reacher asks about the old family home. He’s told no one named Reacher ever lived in town. He’s always known his father left and never returned, but now Reacher wonders, Was he ever there in the first place?
As Reacher explores his father’s life, and as the Canadians face lethal dangers, strands of different stories begin to merge. Then Reacher makes a shocking discovery: The present can be tough, but the past can be tense . . . and deadly. (amazon) (kindle pre-order 2018-2-26)
