The opening scene depicts a dual representation of Arthur and Joker as the film constructs a dystopian dream by merging the labyrinth of the city and the labyrinth of the mind. This duality extends to the smearing of Gotham City's saviour, Batman, who is the moral opponent of Joker as the villain. This is no longer the story we know. Joker is operating in the labyrinth as both metaphor and myth. At the climax of this journey, Arthur embraces his Joker persona as the film intersects with the standard Batman narrative. By accompanying Arthur, as he embraces his mirror image of Joker, the audience attempts to navigate chaos—a dystopian dream, mediated in the film, mirroring the life world. The film is an intense political statement about the perverse nature of neoliberal Western democracy. The formulas in the capitalist dream of “success” and “happiness,” in this society, are characterised by obscene wealth living alongside abject poverty. The labyrinth of the city space, as the epitome of civilisation, creates monsters which are of its own making. Likewise, we are navigating the labyrinthine chaos of capitalism that results in our displacement and delirium.]]> Thu 12 Nov 2020 13:05:50 AEDT ]]> Radical reformism and the Marxist critique https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36742 Thu 02 Jul 2020 16:31:42 AEST ]]> Ceasefire city: militarism, capitalism, and urbanism in Dimapur https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40977 Thu 01 Sep 2022 11:14:32 AEST ]]> Working Nation, the ethos of competition and the transformation of public policy https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:823 Sat 24 Mar 2018 10:43:27 AEDT ]]> Interpreting socialism and capitalism in China: a dialectic of utopia and dystopia https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31593 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:45:02 AEDT ]]> Ruling class men: money, sex, power (book review) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7630 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:34:40 AEDT ]]> The underground life of capitalism: space, persons and money in Bali (West New Britain) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:2399 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:29:23 AEDT ]]> Ecofeminist in theory and practice: women's responses to environmental issues https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1725 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:27:25 AEDT ]]> Food, society, and the environment https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:2300 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:26:57 AEDT ]]> The new politics of social work https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:14119 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:26:03 AEDT ]]> Full employment abandoned: the triumph of ideology over evidence https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15058 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:21:35 AEDT ]]> Kapitalfetisch: 'the religion of everyday life' https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15808 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:19:39 AEDT ]]> World-systems analysis and comparative education for an uncertain future https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11107 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:55 AEDT ]]> El análisis sistema-mundo y el estudio educativo: investigación para un mundo incierto https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11106 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:55 AEDT ]]> Alternative scenarios: technological optimism or low energy futures https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10505 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:08:29 AEDT ]]> 'In the Goofy parking lot': growth churches as a novel religious form for late capitalism https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16595 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:06:41 AEDT ]]> Reinventing the lefts in Latin America: critical perspectives from below https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19033 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:05:26 AEDT ]]> Idols of nations: biblical myth at the origins of capitalism https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17491 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:04:09 AEDT ]]> Unsustainable food production: its social origins and alternatives https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:6638 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:46:19 AEDT ]]> The corporate social responsibilty movement: a new actor in employment relations? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:6702 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:46:07 AEDT ]]> Towards a spatial Keynesian economics https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:6420 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:45:18 AEDT ]]> The financialisation of social reproduction: domestic labour and promissory value https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25614 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:28:13 AEDT ]]> Climate change, capitalism and corporations: processes of creative self-destruction https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25534 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:26:06 AEDT ]]> Planning the city https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:3864 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:23:11 AEDT ]]> Black Saturday: representing catastrophe https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23779 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:13:20 AEDT ]]> Working 24/7: the new work ethic https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20315 Fri 28 Aug 2015 14:06:31 AEST ]]>
