Paperback. Zustand: Good. Inspired by Roland Barthes's practice of semioclasm in Mythologies, this book offers a technoclasm; a cultural critique of US narratives, discourses, images, and objects that have transformed the politics of automation into statements of fact about the rise of the robots.

Paperback. Zustand: New. (De)Automating the Future presents a wide-ranging investigation into automation's ambivalences from an interdisciplinary Marxist perspective.Much has been written about the prospects of automation in recent years. While many have raised concerns over the threat of technological mass unemployment, others have anticipated a fully automated communist utopia which will provide material abundance to everyone. The book's contributors raise questions about automation's affordances for postcapitalism, its transformation of manual and mental labour, and its role in the intensification of class antagonisms and exploitation.…

Hardback. Zustand: New. 2022 ed. Widely regarded by critics and fans as one of the best games ever produced for the Sony Playstation, The Last of Us is remarkable for offering players a narratively rich experience within the parameters of cultural and gaming genres that often prioritize frenetic violence by straight white male heroes. The Last of Us is also a milestone among mainstream, big-budget (AAA) games because its development team self-consciously intervened in videogames' historical exclusion of women and girls by creating complex and agentive female characters. The game's co-protagonist, Ellie, is a teenage girl who is revealed to be queer in The Last of Us: Left Behind (DLC, 2014) and The Last of Us II (2020). Yet The Last of Us also centers Joel,  Ellie's fatherly protector.How is patriarchy, the rule of the father, encoded in rule-based systems like videogames? How does patriarchal rule become an algorithmic rule and vice-versa? These questions are at the heart of this book, the first comprehensive scholarly analysis of the zombie apocalypse/ action-adventure/ third-person shooter videogame The Last of Us (2013). On the one hand, the book is a close, extended study of The Last of Us and its themes, genres, procedures, and gameplay. On the other hand, the book is a post-GamerGate reflection on the political and ethical possibilities of progressive play in algorithmic mass culture, of which videogames are now the dominant form.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Like all fundamental categories, work becomes ever more complex as we examine it more closely. The terms 'work,' 'labor,' 'job,' 'employment,' 'occupation,' 'profession,' 'vocation,' 'task,' 'toil,' 'effort,' 'pursuit,' and 'calling' form a dense web of overlapping and contrasting meanings. Moreover, the analysis of work must contend with how histories of class struggle, gendered and sexual divisions of labor, racial hierarchies, and citizenship regimes have determined who counts as a worker and qualifies for the rights, protections, and social respect thereof. And yet waged work is only the tip of an enormous iceberg that feminist theorists call 'socially reproductive labor'-the gendered, mostly unpaid, and hidden work of caring for, feeding, nursing, and teaching the next generation of workers. This collection of essays explores the richness of work as a linguistic, cultural, and historical concept and the conjunctures that are changing work and its worlds.…
