Dear /his/ i need to write a paper about a comparison between Max Weber's 'iron cage' and Foucault's panopticism. The thing is i don't exactly Know how the iron cage holds us down in society in relation to the 'gaze'. Can you guys provide me with some insight?

If you accurately predict your behaviour, does that make it less or more authentic when it occurs?
On one hand it's more well-thought-out, but on the other it isn't spontaneous, which is a critical component (or is it?). I'm obviously simplifying but that's the key basis.

Are people really this idiotic? How can an economic system be laissez-faire when there is a central bank, permanent income tax, and military-Keynesianism (see Banana Wars)? Even if era could be described as laissez-faire, how did it cause the Great Depression? Even Bernanke himself admitted the fraudulent... Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
I'm looking up Charles Edward Stuart and his Wikipedia article claims he "was the second Jacobite pretender to the thrones of England, Scotland, France and Ireland (as Charles III) from the death of his father in 1766.", my question is when and how was he a pretender to the French throne?
If something is predetermined, there can only be one possible outcome.
In the other realities, for a different result, something must have happened differently, and therefore wasn't predetermined.
If it comes down to quantum determinism that might change things but the only other explanation could be hard indeterminism or libertarianism in this case.
USSR could have prevented losing the Cold War by drastically lowering the budget on overseas military bases, and focusing its efforts on securing alliances with India, Pakistan, Persia, Middle East and China.
Perhaps invading Japan and sending more troops to Korea when it mattered would have been a good move.
Pic related is a commie block, the USSR should have made economic reforms earlier on the game.
The USSR fell because of rampant military spending, up the 30% and potentially more according to Gorbachev. All hidden as "industry" so it looked like they had low amounts of military spending. But yes, their problem was the private sector wasn't private, it was hypermanaged and ultimately not given room to grow or innovate. They employed people but didn't always pay them, they made things they didn't necessarily need, they built cities they couldn't maintain. They were desperately afraid the West would invade the USSR, while also being afraid of rebellion and coups in the home country, leading to a really fucking economic profile and lots of distrust at the higher levels. Stalin's ridiculous paranoia certainly didn't help either. The fact of the matter was the Reds didn't have that big of an economy, nor a particularly stable one, and the industry they did have suffered heavily in WW2. US industry grew stronger ten times over and showed no signs of slowing down. It could create more tanks with a smaller budget than the Soviets could, and that scared them. Not to mention the US had the lion's share of good scientists and the funding to get them to work, and the Soviet scientists were by no means bad, but they were outnumbered and could only dream of the funding the West was handing out. They fell behind technologically, economically, and as the Cold War dragged on they began to lose influence as well. Vietnam was probably their biggest success but it cost them dearly in funding and weaponry and ultimately did nothing to hurt the US in the then and now. If anything the lessons learned in SEAD and counterinsurgency and battlefield weaponry application only served to help reform and strengthen the US, while the Soviets only learned of how ineffective their advanced SAMs were at stopping US air domination and how their fighters couldn't actually stand toe to toe with US fighters.
The Cold War was a clash of economies and the US's economy was bigger and better.
Have you actually read Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra from beginning to end? Did you understand every line of it? How long did it take you to fully read it?
I am on Part 3 now. Each section takes me like 30 minutes at least to get through, and I only allow myself a couple hours of reading at a time on days where I feel my best, so it has been a very slow, patient read for me. But I feel like I am absorbing just about all of it as a result.
In terms of absolute no they were not necessary. They were on the contrary unethical (obvious, I know). That being said for the ''communist'' regime to stay in place, yes they were essential because the ''communist'' party never acheived through communism so they had to use other means to stay in place (shut up the opposition being one of those)
Gulag Archipelago is a compelling, perhaps moderately exaggerated source on the subject. As the other anon said the purges were entirely necessary, as Stalin's regime was propped up by silencing dissent and spreading fear of getting canned.
Good ideas don't require force. Bad ideas do. Really bad ideas require lots of it.
