Determinants of Mental Illness Among Humanitarian Migrants
Background: As refugee numbers grow worldwide, understanding prevalence and determinants of mental illness in this population becomes increasingly important. Methods: We used longitudinal data to examine the initial years of resettlement in Australian refugees with a focus on ethnic-like social support. Three annual waves from a longitudinal, nationally representative cohort of 2,399 humanitarian migrants recently resettled in Australia were exam…
T uring, A lan M
What is known today as the Turing machine model captures the character of everyday computation. On the one hand, Alan Turing's design for a universal machine adumbrated the stored‐program computer—the “wheel” of the impending computer revolution and of the new information age. On the other hand, he described the unsolvable “halting problem” of this machine: there is an “incomputability,” observable by us, but not by the machine. Turing seems to h…
The Situationist International in Britain
This book tells, for the first time, the story of the Situationist International’s influence and afterlives in Britain, where its radical ideas have been rapturously welcomed and fiercely resisted. The Situationist International presented itself as the culmination of the twentieth century avant-garde tradition — as the true successor of Dada and Surrealism. Its grand ambition was not unfounded. Though it dissolved in 1972, generations of artists …
The style of negation and the negation of style
The writings of Guy Debord, central impresario of the Situationist International (1957–1972), have frequently been mistranslated by Anglophonic readers. This article investigates how critics and translators have struggled, specifically, with Debord’s style of writing, which he describes in Society of the Spectacle (1967) as a “style of negation.” After it establishes the theoretical basis and the history of the Anglophonic reception of Debord’s s…
