	The Postmodernism Generator: Communications From Elsewhere
		The premise of predeconstructive situationism suggests that the media is capable of deconstruction, given that sexuality is distinct from consciousness.
		But predeconstructive situationism states that context is created by the masses, but only if the premise of the neocultural paradigm of discourse is valid; if that is not the case, Marx's model of postconstructivist discourse is one of "dialectic destructuralism", and hence intrinsically elitist.
		The primary theme of Parry's[6] critique of predeconstructive situationism is the bridge between art and sexual identity.

	The construction of situations and the spectre of "situationism"
		The invention of something called "situationism", whether it were a political ideology or as an artistic movement, would represent the confinement of the situationist project to the limits of the disciplines which it aimed to transcend.
		The SI's battle with potential proponents of an artistic "situationism" began early: shortly after the organisation had been formed in 1957 half of the Italian section was expelled on the grounds that their "experimental" approach equated to a rejection of rational analysis and of the possibility of value judgments.
		Chimerical as it was, the spectre of situationism had many adverse effects on the SI: the abandonment of much of its original practice, the fostering of rhetorical polarisation, the self-contradictory final state of the group and its subsequent ignominious implosion.

	The Society of Situationism
		Situationism is the direct or implicit ideologization of situationist theory, within the revolutionary movement and in the society as a whole.
		Inasmuch as situationist theory is a critique of all aspects of alienated life, the diverse nuances of situationism reflect in concentrated form the general illusions of the society, and the ideological defenses generated by the situationists prefigure the ideological defenses of the system.
		Situationism is the stealing of the initiative from the revolutionary movement, the critique of daily life undertaken by power itself.

		The mark of existentialist situationism is its requirement that one should always act whole-heartedly, in conscious personal freedom (meaning by this, openness to variation from all one’s actions hitherto).
		The mark of Christian situationism is its conviction that general moral rules applied to the matter in hand will not always lead you to what the command of God and the calculations of neighbourly love (which two things some identify and others distinguish) actually require.
		Situationism diagnoses this claim as legalistic and declines to accept it, insisting that love itself requires one to go further and do more: namely, to pay fullest attention to the situation itself, which may be an exceptional set of circumstances requiring, for the fullest expression of love, an exceptional way of acting.

	Situationist - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The notion of situationism is obviously devised by antisituationists."
		An ironic example of recuperation, it could be argued, was the 1989 Situationist exhibition staged in Paris, Boston, and at the ICA gallery in London's Mall, wherein both original situationist manifestos, and contemporary Pro-Situ influenced works (records, fanzines, samizdat-style leaflets and propaganda) were presented as museum artifacts for the mass consumption of the art establishment.
		This event of course contrasts sharply to the occasion when the Situationist International gave a presentation at the ICA themselves, which famously ended when an audience member asked the group "what is situationism?" to which one of them answered "we are not here to answer cuntish questions" before marching off to the bar.

	fAf :: Ezine - reviews
		Situationism has recently been equated with the online context, especially in form of information access as a kind of online 'dérive'.
		The term Situationism refers back to a group of 20th century conceptual artists called the 'Situationist International' or S.I. This group was based around the philosopher and artist Guy Debord and included some other contemporary thinkers and artists.
		Situationism also moved beyond France, when new groups were set up throughout Europe.

	Doing Things With Words: Get situated
		The Situationist International is a collection of artists and activists dedicated to situationism.
		One way or another, the currents which the SI took as predecessors saw their purpose as involving a radical redefinition of the role of art in the twentieth century.
		Situationism is something of a fusion of anarchism and surrealism.

		In situationism, the postulate of moral realism effectively reduces to the postulate of a coherence between decision (c) and judgment (a), in the sense that decisions should intend what is acknowledged as possible by judgment (a).
		Notice that according to situationism, in order to understand or even acknowledge this success (or failure) which is a kind of fact (!), the situationist again needs an ideology, which would explain what the success is, what the resistance is and what is resisted.
		Situationism leaves just two possibilities open: it is another situational decision to follow an ideology or it is the decision (c), which is actually estimated by the ideology.

	Definitions - www.ezboard.com
		Situationism as a term was rejected by the SI.
		You could call it situationist theory or situationist ideology, and situationism doesn't have to mean the latter, only a set of views similar to the S.I. and their critiques, but not seen as DOGMA (hence, the first, situationist theory).
		Well, it's not matter of what situationism HAS to mean, its matter of what it DOES mean, and what it means is the theory of the S.I. rigidified into an ideology (and thus with no hope of superseding the S.I.).

		Inevitably, the situationist distaste for the forms in which needs are created and satisfied in modern societies is alien to an anarcho-capitalist: any diagnosis of alienation in labour or in leisure is found suspect.
		Situationism's proclaimed contempt for consumer goods provides much of its initial resonance for transitional social groups.
		Situationism contributed much to that critique, but contained other elements which neutralised much of its worth (not least the former leaders' subsequent self-historification and projection).

	A Critical Look at Situation Ethics : Christian Courier
		Situationism completely ignores the biblical view that mere mortals are void of sufficient wisdom to guide their earthly activity (cf.
		Finally, situationism assumes a sort of infallible omniscience that is able to always precisely predict what the most “loving” course of action is. For instance, the theory contends that lying, adultery, murder, etc., could be “moral” if done within the context of love.
		Moreover, it is claimed that even Christ sanctioned the principle of situationism when he appealed to the circumstance of David and his men eating the showbread, normally reserved for priests only, in an emergency situation (Mt. 12:1ff).

	Situated Constructivism and Computer Technology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Situated cognition, or situationism, is the psychological view of cognition stating that thinking is embedded in context and draws on social, cultural, and material resources that are never identical for any two individuals or in any two situations/contexts for the same individual.
		Situationism is important to the constructivist theory because each individual learns in a different manner and has different learning experiences to draw from.
		The three approaches to understanding context (or situationism) are activity theory, situated action, and distributed cognition.

		Wyckaert's and Debord's word-fetishism at the ICA as to "situationism" was probably just part of the ambush laid for the audience, but sit texts did regularly harp on parts of speech as protective amulets against recuperation -- a formalism at once naive and nitpicking.

		The essential in situationism is the relationship of human beings to the forces of creativity; it is the intention to realise these forces through moments of creativity.
		We believe that situationism is art and the creative human being (the artist) has to get involved in the social situation.

		Taking subjective situationism seriously means, among other things, that generally valid definitions are illusory.
		Please note that this framework-based, deductive-structuralist and generative concept of interdisciplinarity runs counter to earlier concepts where interdisciplinarity is more of an inductive synthesis of a priori disciplines (Moran 2002).
		As subjective situationism suggests, different concepts of rigor in science should not come as a surprise.

		However, Adorno uses the term 'capitalist situationism' to denote the nothingness, and eventually the genre, of subdialectic sexual identity.
