Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Artists always react to the times in which they live. They may celebrate them or criticize them, often trying to change them. But this is the first time in history that technology controlled by private companies is offering to replace the work of writers, musicians, illustrators and visual artists. What impact will generative AI have on how we create art and how we understand what art is for How will it affect the role of the artist in the future and the conditions under which artists will work Jan Svenungsson tackles these questions, investigating what AI might do for art, and what it might change, circling the core issue of what it is in human art-making that cannot be replaced. 120 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Scotland's quest for statehood is a paradigmatic case of democratic nationalism. Philipp Rückheim highlights the crucial role of inclusion in this sentiment, distinguishing the political collective based on place of residence and the national collective based on identity. Case studies on national symbols such as anthem, language, and parliament show how to maintain national identity while integrating newcomers. Furthermore, the impact of religion, education, and the economy on Scotland's quest for autonomy links the functional differentiation of world society with nationalism - offering insights for anyone seeking to understand the interplay of democracy and nationalism in world society. 252 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -The concept of la chance accounts for everyday knowledge production in uncertain contexts in Bamako, Mali, where university graduates constitute an educational elite strongest affected by unemployment. Graduates know that la chance decides whether they succeed or fail. Susann Ludwig shows that this concept embodies common sense as much as it offers the possibility of the extraordinary. Graduates play »the game of la chance«, in which success is defined by a continuation of play rather than an end goal. Providing an explorative experience to the reader, this study accounts for the elusiveness of la chance in the Bamako context and beyond. 256 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Radio signals keep making material, informational, political, and social connections in this world. Exploring these signals architectonically, the contributors engage with the situatedness of radio signal recordings in nature and with knowledge implied in radio communication. Rooted in experimental design and data feminism, the book presents innovative tools for navigating data by spanning media theory, information studies, and feminist new materialism. This offers an intersectional and post-disciplinary approach to computation, classification, and search that is accessible to artists, technologists, and researchers - facilitating interdisciplinary collaboration and deepening the understanding of information technologies. 184 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -In German spoken theatre, prompt books used to be written by multiple participants engaging in diverse manuscript practices which continually revise the unfixed literary text within its theatrical context. Based on examples of the vast Hamburg »Theatre-Library« from the 1770s to 1820s, this study proposes a transdisciplinary approach towards handwritten artefacts in modern European theatre. Martin Jörg Schäfer and Alexander Weinstock examine the many-handed creation, handwritten transformation and often decades of use of prompt books in a time increasingly dominated by print. This perspective changes our notion of theatre history around 1800 as well as that of literature and authorship. 274 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -How do digital media technologies affect society and our lives Through the cultural theory hypotheses of hyper-modernism, hyperreality, and posthumanism, Alan N. Shapiro investigates the social impact of Virtual/Augmented Reality, AI, social media platforms, robots, and the Brain-Computer Interface. His examination of concepts of Jean Baudrillard and Katherine Hayles, as well as films such as Blade Runner 2049, Ghost in the Shell, Ex Machina, and the TV series Black Mirror, suggests that the boundary between science fiction narratives and the »real world« has become indistinct. Science-fictional thinking should be advanced as a principal mode of knowledge for grasping the world and digitalization. 374 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Species are going extinct, forests are burning, and children are worried about the future and their peers worldwide. But that is not the whole story: One Friday in 2018, a few young people joined Greta Thunberg to protest, and the global climate strike movement was born. Scientist David Fopp spent 250 Fridays with the newly formed grassroots movements. Together with activists Isabelle Axelsson and Loukina Tille, he offers an insider perspective on how scientists and activists can fight for a just and sustainable global society. The volume also offers both an introduction to ecophilosophy and a unified science of democracy in times of interdependent crises. How can research in all disciplines - from (drama) education and economics to psychology - help with this struggle And how can we all fight the climate crisis by transforming and deepening democracy.

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Public and political interest in social entrepreneurship (SE) is increasing while it remains a contested and ambiguous concept. Philipp Kenel traces the popular media representation of SE in Germany over time (1999-2021), making an important empirical contribution to the sociological and political understanding of the phenomenon. He shows that until 2008, SE was mainly understood as a reform of the welfare infrastructure (including public and non-profit institutions). From 2009, SE was increasingly conceptualised as part of the economy, while sometimes challenging and other times reaffirming mainstream economic logics. More recently, in somewhat competing perspectives, SE has been framed as part of the 'start-up' world or as a force for deeper social and ecological transformation. 288 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -»Humanismus« gehört zu den wirkmächtigsten Begriffen politischer, religiöser und philosophischer Debatten in Geschichte und Gegenwart. Dabei wird der Begriff gleichermaßen historiographisch und normativ verwendet und dient sowohl der Positionierung in weltanschaulichen Konflikten als auch der Zementierung eines Deutungsanspruchs in globalhistorischen Diskursen. Friedemann Stengel thematisiert »Humanismus« in seiner Polyvalenz und eindeutigen Widersprüchlichkeit. Dazu konfrontiert er heutige Definitionen mit den historischen Kontexten vom 15. bis ins späte 19. Jahrhundert und zeigt die historiographische Unmöglichkeit des Begriffs auf. Darüber hinaus entwickelt er in Anknüpfung an diskurstheoretische Einsichten Anregungen für einen neuen Umgang mit »Humanismus« insgesamt. 108 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Listening, experiencing, drawing or interpreting spaces: narratives, experiences, visualizations and discourses can be helpful for the empirical investigation of spaces. This interdisciplinary handbook presents a broad spectrum of established methods and innovative method development to capture and understand different facets of spaces. Instructive explanations and concrete examples make the varied qualitative methods of spatial research understandable and applicable across disciplines. The theoretical and methodological aspects of qualitative spatial research form the framework of this handbook.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 376 pp. Englisch.
