In Promises of the Political , Erik Swyngedouw explores whether progressive and emancipatory politics is still possible in a post-political era. Activists and scholars have developed the concept of post-politicization to describe the process by which "the political" is replaced by techno-managerial governance. If the political domain has been systematically narrowed into a managerial apparatus in which consensual governance prevails, where can we find any possibility of a new democratic politics? Swyngedouw examines this question through the lens of recent urban insurgencies. In Zuccotti Park, Paternoster Square, Taksim Square, Tahrir Square, Hong Kong, and elsewhere, he argues, insurgents have gathered to choreograph new configurations of the democratic. Swyngedouw grounds his argument in urban and ecological processes, struggles, and conflicts through which post-politicization has become institutionally entrenched. He casts "the city" and "nature" as emblematic of the construction of post-democratic modes of governance. He describes the disappearance of the urban polis into the politics of neoliberal planetary urbanization; and he argues that the political-managerial framing of "nature" and the environment contributes to the formation of depoliticized governance -- most notably in the impotent politics of climate change. Finally, he explores the possibilities for a reassertion of the political, considering whether -- after the squares are cleared, the tents folded, and everyday life resumes -- the urban uprisings of the last several years signal a return of the political. 606 $aUrban ecology (Sociology)$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aPolitical ecology$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aPopulism$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aRadicalism$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aPolitical participation$xHistory$y21st century 610 $aURBANISM/General 610 $aENVIRONMENT/General 610 $aSOCIAL SCIENCES/Sociology 615 0$aUrban ecology (Sociology)$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical ecology$xHistory 615 0$aPopulism$xHistory 615 0$aRadicalism$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical participation$xHistory 676 $a307.76 700 $aSwyngedouw$b E$g(Erik),$0275944 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910493204303321 996 $aPromises of the political$92489277 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02805nam 2200637 450 001 996466608503316 005 20220906112237.0 010 $a3-540-68333-X 024 7 $a10.1007/BFb0093404 035 $a(CKB)1000000000437362 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000326626 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12069596 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000326626 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10296521 035 $a(PQKB)10888918 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-540-68333-9 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5591980 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5591980 035 $a(OCoLC)1066200032 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6841917 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6841917 035 $a(OCoLC)1294143686 035 $a(PPN)155179810 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000437362 100 $a20220906d1997 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aSequences, discrepancies, and applications /$fMichael Drmota, Robert F.

The authors focus on various aspects such as special sequences, metric theory, geometric concepts of discrepancy, irregularities of distribution, continuous uniform distribution and uniform distribution in discrete spaces. Specific applications are presented in detail: numerical integration, spherical designs, random number generation and mathematical finance. Furthermore over 1000 references are collected and discussed. While written in the style of a research monograph, the book is readable with basic knowledge in analysis, number theory and measure theory. 410 0$aLecture notes in mathematics (Springer-Verlag) ;$v1651. 606 $aUniform distribution (Probability theory) 606 $aSequences (Mathematics) 615 0$aUniform distribution (Probability theory) 615 0$aSequences (Mathematics) 676 $a510 700 $aDrmota$b Michael$f1957-$061539 702 $aTichy$b R.
