SummaryMarshall McLuhan once described the artistic imagination as an "early warning system" of major shifts in the logic of technological society. For McLuhan, artists are like "probes" of the relationship of technology and culture just because their work is so often at the frontiers of technological experience. If this is so, then there is a contemporary group of Manitoba artists who have much to tell us about emancipatory art and technology since their artistic productions dwell on technology as decay and ecstacy. The Manitoba vision? It's a radically new way of "seeing" the social and cultural impact of technology.

SummaryIn this article we develop the contrary reasoning between the theoretical positions of Jiirgen Habermas and Marcel Rioux. We consider their two contradictory theories of praxis within their respective traditions: culture as the reasoned praxis of communicative action (Habermas) and as the aesthetic praxis of social life (Rioux). Finally, we propose a theory of culture as dialogical praxis in order to indicate the program of research in critical sociology which we mean to pursue in the future.

AbstractPostmodern theorists of identity and difference such as Iris M. Young have criticized civic republicanism as oppressive because, like other ideologies, it silences cultural differences and imposes uniformity and homogeneity on society. In response to I. Young this article argues that there is a tradition of republicanism that engaged the question of recognizing and accommodating social diversity. Moreover, how this tradition does so is relevant to postmodern politics as embodied in new social movements. The politics of new social movements, according to the author, represent another variant of republicanism. However, it is a variant that is deficient in its failure to address the question of wealth and distribution. Rightly constructed republicanism has the capacity to address both the question of diversity and of wealth and redistribution.
