Le destin vient fusionner passé et présent. Père et fils se retrouvent face à une dure vérité : parfois, les ténèbres surviennent des endroits les plus inattendus.

Πέρασαν δεκαεννέα χρόνια από τότε που ο Χάρι Πότερ, ο Ρον Ουέσλι και η Ερμιόνη Γκρέιντζερ έσωσαν τον κόσμο των μάγων και τώρα επιστρέφουν με μιαν άκρως ασυνήθιστη περιπέτεια, στην οποία συμμετέχει και η νέα γενιά γενναίων μαθητών που μόλις έφτασε στη Σχολή Χόγκουαρτς για Μαγείες και Ξόρκια. Ενώ ο Χάρι παλεύει με το παρελθόν που αρνείται να παραμείνει παρελθόν, ο μικρότερος γιος του, ο Άλμπους, πασχίζει να σταθεί αντάξιος μιας οικογενειακής κληρονομιάς που δεν θέλησε ποτέ να έχει. Όσο το παρόν συγκρούεται με το παρελθόν, πατέρας και γιος εγκλωβίζονται σε μια μάχη με τον χρόνο, καθώς αντιμάχονται μυστηριώδεις δυνάμεις, ενώ το μέλλον κρέμεται από μια κλωστή.

Based on an original new story by J.K. Rowling, John Tiffany and Jack Thorne, a new play by Jack Thorne, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official Harry Potter story to be presented on stage. The play will receive its world premiere in London''s West End on 30th July 2016. It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn''t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children. While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.

Phil and Alice are in love - familiar, flawed, ordinary love. They are on a journey, but this journey doesn''t have an A to Z.

Over the past decade there has been growing media attention to the problems of student loans, rising tuition costs, an escalating student debt crisis and the implications of all this for graduate futures. However, there has been relatively little anthropological literature that deals with this field. This thesis explores the ways students, the student loan scheme and student loan discourse engage in processes of responsibilisation. Drawing on lived experiences of student borrowers and student loan discourse found in White Papers, parliamentary discussions, media representations and task force policy reports this thesis will discuss how neoliberalisation is entrenched within the funding mechanisms of tertiary education. The central aim of neoliberal governmentality ("the conduct of conduct") is the strategic construction of social conditions that encourages and necessitates the production of homo economicus, a historically grounded form of person constituted by market forces as a free and autonomous atom of self-interest. Analysis reveals a shift, parallel with the removal of interest from student loans, in the discursive production of students from ''market-subjects'' to ''fiscally responsible'' subjects. I argue that there is an overarching reliance on discourses of student responsibilisation within New Zealand''s Student Loan Scheme, whereby the actions of students and the risks they are exposed to are perceived as rational choices rather than inherent outcomes of a privatising funding mechanism. Student loan discourse, by discursively producing students as ''fiscally responsible'', are making them responsible to state, the taxpayer, the government, the nation and the future generations of students. Through an ethnographic investigation into contemporary student experience, the neglected voices of students problematize the dominance of the ''fiscally responsible'' student. Using the concept of ''competing responsibilities'' (Trnka & Trundle 2014), I argue that students are rejecting their representation as fiscally responsible, making space for other forms of responsibility and obligation that conflict with neoliberal modes. Further, students are also negotiating with and unpacking what it means to be responsible; relocating themselves as experts within the field of student loan expenditure.
