| Notes: [JOURNALISM]. Ed. Jonathan Sturgeon. Contributors: Barbara Ehrenreich, William Powhida, Lydia Millet, Terrance Hayes, Jessica Loudis, et al. "The Baffler, No. 38, Mar / Apr 2018, "Holy Orders." New York: The Baffler Foundation, 2018. English language. Perfect-bound magazine. Text with full-color illustrations. 9 1/2 x 6 3/4 inches. 9 oz. 136 pp. Text clean. No issues. With subscription advert insert. Very Good Plus. ISSN: 1059-9789. "Baffler 38 presents an eclectic array of musings on the cults, sects, and holy orders populating the cybernated badlands and civic swamps of our accursed epoch. From Barbara Ehrenreich on the agonizing postmodern asceticism that is fitness culture, to Ann Neumann on the Mexican folk idol who’s been conscripted into the drug wars, we’re tipping the innumerable, and often unchallenged, sacred cows of the Trump era. Jessica Loudis travels all the way to Georgia to investigate a new wave of Stalin nostalgia, while Bruce Bartlett pines for a Republican Party actually invested in economics. Eugene McCarraher scrutinizes the deranged doctrines of Ayn Rand, chief theologian of the neoliberal church of capital, and Jeff Hauser takes on a cult of fundamentalist political scientists bent on predicting us into oblivion." |
