Against Community: Book Proposal

Against Community

Against Community attempts to the explore the political rhetoric of "community" with reference to the politics of the United Kingdom in the era of neoliberalism. Specifically, what is the material and ideological function of discourses around community? How have these shifted over time in the politics of the mainstream of the United Kingdom - from the birth of neoliberal politics in the late 1970s, to the Blairite highpoint of the late 1990s to the Serco-sponsored austerity jamboree of Cameron's "big society"? Why the attraction of community so strong that the likely incoming Labour government feel the need to endorse it in the concept of "one nation"?

Against Community begins by exploring the ideas of community within the early German neoliberal theorists, showing community to be a central concern of the "shock doctrine" reconstruction of post-World War II Germany. Even as early as the later 1940s and 1950s neoliberal reform was accompanied by rhetoric of "community". This idea

Import instagram data into a static site (Jekyll, Hugo, Hana, Metalsmith, etc)
import codecs
from datetime import datetime
import json

# This script will import your instagram photos to your static site. It should work for most, assuming you customize the POST_TEMPLATE to match what your site uses.

If .DS_Store was never added to your git repository, simply add it to your .gitignore file.

If you don't have one, create a file called

.gitignore

In your the root directory of your app and simply write

Trello CSS Guide

Hello, visitors! If you want an updated version of this styleguide in repo form with tons of real-life examples… check out Trellisheets! https://github.com/trello/trellisheets


Trello CSS Guide

“I perfectly understand our CSS. I never have any issues with cascading rules. I never have to use !important or inline styles. Even though somebody else wrote this bit of CSS, I know exactly how it works and how to extend it. Fixes are easy! I have a hard time breaking our CSS. I know exactly where to put new CSS. We use all of our CSS and it’s pretty small overall. When I delete a template, I know the exact corresponding CSS file and I can delete it all at once. Nothing gets left behind.”

You often hear updog saying stuff like this. Who’s updog? Not much, who is up with you?

Deploy to `gh-pages` from a `dist` folder on the master branch. Useful for use with [yeoman](http://yeoman.io).

Deploying a subfolder to GitHub Pages

Sometimes you want to have a subdirectory on the master branch be the root directory of a repository’s gh-pages branch. This is useful for things like sites developed with Yeoman, or if you have a Jekyll site contained in the master branch alongside the rest of your code.

For the sake of this example, let’s pretend the subfolder containing your site is named dist.

Step 1

Remove the dist directory from the project’s .gitignore file (it’s ignored by default by Yeoman).
