In this book he explores the new regime of normativity at work in the collective farce in which “hypersensitive tweeters” are acting in a “normative happening” where transgression is an omnipresent norm, inscribed in the mind and body of everyone.  A 'blow to the heart of social media'!\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eChristian Salmon, Centre for Research in the Arts and Language at the CNRS, Paris\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eWhat if the most joyful act was not to transgress a norm but to erect it? What if creativity consisted in enunciating a law under the pretext of violating it? And what if it turned out that you, who claim to prefer exceptions, only talk about them because they allow you to imagine the rules? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book proposes a provocative interpretation of the dynamic relationship between the normative and the transgressive. Combining sociology, biopolitics and satire, it offers a surprising theory of normative imagination as a cognitive mode characteristic of the era of emotional capitalism. Gender, fashion, artistic creation and surveillance are analyzed from the perspective of a regulatory drive, a continuously renovated and imperative push for normalcy that no longer comes from factual powers but from citizens themselves. These, united in a spontaneous popular court, armed with smartphones and driven by juridical compulsion, become the axis of societies of control. In this way the affective ways of constructing subjectivity are replaced by the distinctive pathology of our times, the name of the globalized game: normopathy for all.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eTranslator’s Note vi \u003cp\u003eGrey Alert, Blue Pill 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Nomographic Imagination 10\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhy Do They Call It “Sex” When They\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMean “the Ethical Dimension of the\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDoctrine of Relation”? 34\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNo One’s Style 48\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDesigual, or Difference 63\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOn the Norm Considered as One of the Fine Arts 79\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotes 117\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Society \u0026amp; culture: general [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Society \u0026amp; culture: general\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Society%20\u0026amp;%20culture:%20general%20%5BJF%5D%22\"\u003eJF\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Polity","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52441807487256,"sku":"9781509543946","price":32.36,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781509543946.jpg?v=1785026370","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/nomography-hardback-9781509543946","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
