How are aesthetics and ethics related to the practical realities of the global fashion industry? Both have played an important role in academic fashion studies to this point, but they are most often discussed in the context of abstract phenomena such as modernity and capitalism, or identity issues such as sexuality, class and gender. The essays in this volume strive instead to show how the realities of the global fashion industry have important and pertinent aesthetic and ethical consequences. This collection provides critical and philosophical analysis of the interplay of aesthetics and ethics within the global fashion industry. Characterized by an increasingly fast spinning production, the industry is highly exploitative in terms of environment and labor force: underpaid textile workers, retailers working under brutal competition from the mass-merchandise discounters, young designers, seamstresses and curators often working for free, and a vast body of aspiring models. In addition, fashion-related aesthetic ideals are becoming more influential than ever in directing consumers in their social and personal identification processes and bodily practices with sometimes fatal consequences. Covering a wide range of subjects such as fashion's highly problematic production and consumption practices, the possibility of producing and consuming fashion ethically, fashion's intimate connection with nature and technology, Fashion Aesthetics and Ethics highlights the powerful aesthetical presence of fashion in relation to its ethical premises and often problematic outcomes.
Can the motive for an action be good enough or spiritual enough to justify its pursuit even if to do so is blatantly illegal and dangerous? THE UNIT answers this question with a "Yes." The novel tells the intriguing, unusual and often times, paradoxically humorous, story of how and why a mysterious man, named only "Lou," along with twelve equally mysterious assistants, forcibly commandeers the local hospital's intensive care unit and holds hostage all of its critically ill patients. Important moral, ethical, and spiritual issues are addressed in the ensuing hostage crisis as Doctor Danny Santore, forensic/investigative radiologist along with a host of accompanying law enforcement officials struggle to regain control of The Unit from the "mad man" Lou and his small occupying army.
