Tentang Clash of Civilization, McWorld dan Terorisme
Welcome back for another episode of Nick’s Non-fiction with your host Nick Muniz! How many times can the empire strike back? For as long as China buys our subtitled CGI. Ben Barber compiled countless citations to once again tell the story of the Rebels vs. the Empire in Jihad vs. McWorld. McDonalds doesn’t sell burgers to 20 million national citizens every day, they serve their customers. The Gilette CEO is on record declaring foreign countries as no longer foreign. In the global market corporations have transcended nations as Dominoes Pizza has a higher annual revenue than Bolivia and Twitter has the power to unperson the Commander in Chief. Barber simplifies the paradigm to a duality pinning corporate imperialism against sovereignty in the form of Jihad. This book will make you question your most indoctrinated beliefs about who is entitled to the natural resources of their forefathers lands. As I’ve seen in my short lifetime alone, blowback is not only ignored by the US govt but packaged as a powerful entrapment tool to galvanize young middle eastern radicals. Barber brings up the origins of American militiamen and the long lost ideas of confederalism while speculating on the FCCs ability to limit broadcast spectra. This Sunday at the community rec center I’ll be holding try-outs for the latest division of ISIS. As MTV fell QVC plugged the hole representing the global conjugation of ideas and culture. Prepare to go theoretically deep on the political compass’s classic rivalry between authoritarianism and libertarianism.

In this episode we try all the McDonald's Worldwide favorites foods, we talk about the Blues winning the Stanley cup and more.
In this episode, Matt and I sit down over some fine 90s music (and a PC Pils from Founders for the Big Pitcher!) to discuss an important article published after the end of the Cold War; Benjamin Barber’s “Jihad vs McWorld.” In it, Barber describes two futures – one marked by the violent forms of ethno-nationalism he terms jihad, and the other by the globalist consumerism of McWorld. The twist is that he argues neither of these futures is good for democracy. We debate the coherence of capitalism, war profiteering, the value of local democracy, and the merits of Terminator 2, Hackers, Jurassic Park, and Independence Day (the celebrations Matt mentions are here). Recommendations are: Dave – Mitchell, Carbon DemocracyMatt – Wright, The World and a Very Small Place in Africa
This is a heated Riffin here, kids. Justin Rupple returns to regale us of his tales as an actor chef for a commercial, which somehow briefly touches on the Manti Te’o scandal, thereby leading us down a heated debate road of the media, the world, the psychology of the brain, and a number of uncomfortable moments. We round it out on happier subjects, including the discussion of the open-letter proposal for a McWorld.
Benjamin Barber's books include "Strong Democracy", "Jihad vs. McWorld" and "Consumed: How Markets Corrupt Children, Infantilize Adults, and Swallow Citizens Whole". Speaking at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, Barber explains how the ideal of people as citizens has been undermined by the drive to turn us all into consumers. The title of his talk is, "Consumerism, Globalization and the End of Sovereignty".
In the midst of the holiday spending and consumption frenzy, Bill Moyers interviews author Benjamin Barber about how capitalism isn't living up to its potential to serve society. "Capitalism is no longer manufacturing goods to meet real needs and human wants," says Barber. "It's manufacturing needs to sell us all the goods it's got to produce." Barber is the author of 17 books including international best-seller Jihad vs. McWorld and Consumed: How Markets Corrupt Children, Infantilize Adults, and Swallow Citizens Whole. Also on the program: is it time to rewrite the Constitution? Moyers gets perspective from the University of Texas law School's Sanford levinson, author of Our Undemocratic Constitution: Where the Constitution Goes Wrong (and How We the People Can Correct It). And an update on changes to media regulations voted on this week by the FCC.
Benjamin Barber discusses his new book Consumed: How Markets Corrupt Children, Infantilize Adults, and Swallow Citizens Whole. A sequel to Barber's best-selling Jihad vs. McWorld, Consumed offers a portrait of how adult consumers are infantilized in a global economy that overproduces goods and targets children as consumers in a market where there are never enough shoppers. Driven by a frantic imperative to sell, consumer capitalism specializes today in the manufacture not of goods but of needs. This culmination of Barber's lifelong study of and capitalism shows how the infantilist ethos deprives society of responsible citizens and displaces public goods with private commodities. Traditional liberal democratic society is colonized by an all-pervasive market imperative. Public space is privatized. Identity is branded. Our world, homogenized. Barber confronts the likely consequences for our children, our liberty, and our citizenship, and shows finally how citizens can resist and transcend the civic schizophrenia with which consumerism has infected them. Barber is the Gershon and Carol Kekst Professor of Civil Society and Distinguished University Professor at the University of Maryland, Distinguished Senior Fellow at Demos, and Director, CivWorld.
