Ну и, конечно, ответил на вопрос: почему же все-таки Первый Альтернативный прекратил свое существование и почему никто никогда не вернет 2007-й.

Dai tempi delle guerre persiane, Oriente e Occidente sono fratelli coltelli, amici e nemici, sogno e incubo. "L’Oriente è l’Oriente, l’Occidente è l’Occidente: e nessuno potrà mai accordarli", dichiara Rudyard Kipling al tempo della fondazione dell’impero britannico d’India. Sulla base dei troppi malintesi generati dal loro confronto sono emersi anche "ismi" ideologici, tanto accaniti tra loro quanto ambigui: orientalismo e occidentalismo, avvolti nel dilatare delle loro contraddizioni. Già Oswald Spengler aveva decretato il "tramonto dell’Occidente".

Su cosa camminiamo quando percorriamo le strade di Roma? "Sul tetto di case antiche" avrebbe risposto Montaigne, perché è l’unico luogo dove i resti sono "profondi fino agli antipodi". Costruzioni, distruzioni, ricostruzioni, sovrapposizioni, riutilizzi. Strutture edificate e dissolte, mai scomparse seppure incendiate, ridotte a calce, annichilite o trafugate, perché trasformate, riemerse casualmente o reinventate. Se vogliamo conoscere Roma, la città dalle infinite stratificazioni, dobbiamo avvicinare la complessità.

If there is an enemy in the War on Drugs, it is people of color. That is the lesson of forty years of cultural production in the United States.

Jason Ruiz explores the creation and endurance of this trope, its effects on Latin Americans and Latinx people, and its role in the cultural politics of the War on Drugs.

"WOW!! I didn't know that!!" - this is what I predict you will say literally hundreds of times as you listen to this book. In fact, in the humblest sort of way, I am confident that you will learn more from this book about the world we live in and interacting with our fellow human beings than you did in all your years of high school and college.

Cuando el profesor Amit Ray quiso convencer a su decano para que le permitiera incluir "Los Simpson" en sus clases argumentó: "Las ideas ya no se escriben en papel. Se escriben en pantallas". Sobre todo en pantallas de televisión, cabría apostillar, ya que son las series de televisión, sobre todo las estadounidenses, las que han propiciado un debate y un diálogo a través de los medios de comunicación, en particular foros, webs y blogs de Internet, en el que se plantean cuestiones tan candentes como la reforma del sistema de pensiones ("El ala oeste de la Casa Blanca"), las relaciones entre padres e hijos ("Los Simpson").
