Since the early 2000s Tillmans has been working on truth study centre, a cycle of works concerned with absolute claims of truth in social and political contexts. Circling around contemporary issues of newly resurfaced right-wing populism, the phenomenon of fake news, and psychological findings such as the backfire effect, Tillmans, rather than analyzing the status quo, focuses on what has changed in the past ten, twenty, thirty, forty years. Why are societal consensus and institutions now under attack? Tillmans interviewed scientists, politicians, journalists, and social workers, highlighting the issues at stake from various angles. The publication also contains analytic texts and studies that shed further light on what happens in our brain, ethics, and online behavior when we are confronted with statements that oppose our political beliefs. Tillmans associated these texts with his own images as well as visual material found in print and online. While designing this year’s Jahresring, he has created photocopy works using the four-color scan process on a machine from the 1990s an early digital collage technique that resonates with the complexity of the situation we find ourselves in today. The 64th Jahresring includes texts by Philipp Hübl, Jonas Kaplan, Joe Keohane, and Michael Seemann, and interviews with Lionel Barber, Carolin Emcke, Sigmar Gabriel, Bianca Klose, Stephan Lewandowsky, Brendan Nyhan, and Wolfgang Schäuble.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e228 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6.7\" x 0.7\" x 9.4\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Centrala Cafe\u0026Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39502697824429,"sku":"2","price":21.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/7904\/1197\/products\/51vhYkt2eCL._SX356_BO1204203200.jpg?v=1617008708"},{"product_id":"adventures-on-a-desert-island-maciej-sienczyk","title":"Adventures on a Desert Island.

Kirsten Forkert","description":"\u003cp\u003eAusterity as Public Mood explores how politicians and the media mobilise nostalgic and socially conservative ideas of work and community in order to justify cuts to public services and create divisions between the deserving and undeserving. It examines the powerful appeal of these concepts as part of a wider public mood marked by guilt, nostalgia and resentment – particularly around the inequalities produced by global capitalism and changes to the nature of work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn doing so, the book engages with urgent questions about the contemporary political climate. Focusing on the UK, it challenges accounts of neoliberalism which frame it as primarily an individualising force and localist definitions of community as mitigating its damaging effects.

Here are stories of direct action from around the world that are bookended by the author’s wedding story. He and his bride led their wedding party to a  protest, and were captured in a photo by the local newspaper kissing in front of a line of police just before being arrested. “We usually follow the rules. But sometimes, if you see something is wrong–more wrong than breaking the rules and by breaking the rules you might stop it–you may need to break the rules.” When indigenous people in Colombia block an oil company from destroying their environment–this is a blockade; when Florida farmworkers encourage people not to buy their tomatos because the farm owners won’t pay them for their hard work–this is called a boycott; and when Claudette Colvin takes a seat in the front of the bus to protest racism–this is called civil disobedience.  In brilliantly bright and inspiring illustrations we see ordinary people say No–to unfair treatment, to war, to destroying the environment. Innosanto Nagara has beautifully melded an act of love with crucial ideas of civil disobedience and direct action that will speak to young readers’ sense of right and wrong. There has never been a more important moment for Innosanto Nagara’s gentle message of firm resolve.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-about-the-book\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"seemore-0\" class=\"slot product-about 9781609808020 isbn-related seemoreenable show opened\" target-height=\"477\" height-fold=\"377\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"more-link-wrap opened\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-listen-to-a-clip\"\u003e36 pages\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e23.88 x 1.02 x 23.62 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehardcover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-also-in-series\"\u003e\u003ca id=\"alsoinseries\" name=\"#alsoinseries\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-also-by-author\"\u003e\n\u003ca id=\"alsobyauthor\" name=\"#alsobyauthor\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"slot author-also-by 9781609808020 isbn-related show\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-work-author-list=\"181550\" class=\"product-author-also-by\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Centrala Cafe\u0026Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39502717649069,"sku":"1","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/7904\/1197\/products\/innosanto-nagara.jpg?v=1617009644"},{"product_id":"10-000-dresses","title":"10,000 Dresses.
