Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Modernity was characterised by a belief that progress would automatically lead to a better future. Today, that optimism has evaporated. In its place we have global heating, multiple wars, economic austerity and a prevailing sense of malaise. Now the primary concern is to limit the damage and avert the catastrophe. Even if that succeeds, we will still be faced with unprecedented change. We are looking at a future where collective survival will take precedence over individual and collective self-fulfilment. Adaptation will be the guiding principle of society. This is raising momentous questions about our understanding of time, of politics and of ourselves - to which progressive political forces and humanity as a whole are going to have to find answers.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 150 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Dirty Dragging, Evelyn Annuß reformulates queer theorizations of drag, exploring the ambivalence of transgressive performances under apartheid, Nazism, and Jim Crow through a transoceanic lens. Taking up the ambivalence of 'dirty' performance modes spanning drag and carnival to propaganda, she extends readings of gender bending by incorporating perspectives on blackface and 'racialized drag.' She thereby explores violent, locally specific mobilizations of the transgressive along with the ways in which queer and creolized forms of performance intertwine to oppose identitarian boundaries. Given the current slide into right-wing authoritarianism, the book thus gestures toward the potential joy of collectively making societal conditions dance.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -What can art and artists bring to researching the origins and biographies of objects How do they shed new light on - or even unsettle - existing approaches to such questions Proposing the new term - artistic provenance research - the contributors to this innovative book illuminate art's capacity to expand provenance research in critical and provocative ways. Presenting in-depth examination of fascinating historical and contemporary examples, contributors to Artistic Provenance Research investigate knowledge-imagination dynamics, and questions of materiality, experimentation and speculation. They probe relationships between presences and absences, the aesthetic and the ontological, the scientific and the curatorial. The cases address a wide range of pressing issues of contemporary heritage research and practice, including those of colonialism and decolonization, ownership and art-markets, institutionalization, human remains, return and restitution. Through the exploration of selected artistic works in diverse media - including drama, performance, installation, photography and text - this book highlights the transformative potentials of artistic provenance research.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 208 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -'Facing Drag' brings together international experts from cultural studies - including history, media, theatre, dance, and performance studies - to explore how gender, race, and ethnicity are impersonated across time and cultures. Drawing on diverse case studies, the volume examines performative acts of crossing, appropriation, and re-signification, foregrounding their political, ethical, and aesthetic dimensions. Expanding the concept of drag beyond gender bending, it investigates the interrelations of drag, processes of racialization and colonial histories. The essays offer critical insights into both the subversive potential of drag and its entanglement with violent forms of Othering and exclusion.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 240 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -It is an open secret that the hardware in our smart devices contains plastics and raw materials mined from conflict regions. Can we move beyond this oppressive system of extraction to find ethical alternatives Feminist hackers Patrícia Reis and Stefanie Wuschitzdiscuss developing technology through eco-feminist artistic tools, rooted in care economies, local knowledges and collective survival. Through an intensive knowledge-sharing process and collaboration with peers, they unpack eco-feminist theory and practices to propose resistance strategies grounded in ethical hardware and de-growth economies - contributing significantly to the new field of arts-based research.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 266 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Hidden from view, university data infrastructures circulate, process and store scientific data while requiring extensive energy and metal extraction. The authors of this volume offer a speculative engagement with cultures of scientific competition, institutional habits, server procurement and regulations, and with funding procedures that each in different ways contribute to scientific computing and its planetary effects. Short speculative ethnographic texts and original line art offer witty and thought-provoking takes on the challenges data-driven science faces in times of climate change.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 102 pp. Englisch.

She investigates Mathematicsin its conceptual relation to Western understandings of the Rational and the Human, and proposes possibilities of subverting Western Mathematicsand of forming different mathematical practices. To engage in decolonial-feminist re-writings of the Rational and the Human requires to re-write mathematical practice too. This study seeks to inspire such practices of re-writing thinking and being - in the realm of the mathematical and beyond.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 222 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -How do social media platforms influence democracy Karoline Helbig explores how the logics and architectures of these platforms structure communication processes. She begins by collecting and systematising central theoretical concepts from the deliberative systems approach, focussing specifically on those pertaining to the structures of and normative standards associated with deliberative systems. Based on these theoretical foundations and drawing on digitisation research, she then situates social media platforms within society-wide deliberative systems. She offers a nuanced analysis of the specific characteristics of digital communication and of how they affect the qualities of deliberation throughout the system. This study speaks to scholars, policymakers and readers concerned with democracy in the digital constellation.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 324 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Dirty Dragging ist dem unberechenbaren, nomadischen Mitschleppen gewidmet und reformuliert queertheoretische Fragen aus transozeanischer Perspektive. Das Buch beschäftigt sich mit der Ambivalenz ¿dreckiger¿ Auftrittsformen von Drag über Karneval bis zur Propaganda in politischen Gewaltzusammenhängen: unter Apartheid, NS und Jim Crow-Segregation. Evelyn Annuß erweitert die Lektüre von Gender Bending um Perspektiven auf Blackface und ¿racialized Drag¿. Entsprechend fragt Dirty Dragging sowohl nach gewaltförmigen, lokal spezifischen Mobilisierungen des Transgressiven als auch danach, wie wie sich queere und kreolisierte Formen performativen Widerstreits gegen identitäre Trennungen verschränken. So erinnert das Buch vor dem Hintergrund gegenwärtigen rechtsautoritären Abdriftens zugleich an das potenzielle Glück, die Verhältnisse kollektiv zum Tanzen zu bringen.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 320 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - WerkstattGeschichte ist eine Zeitschrift, in der über Geschichte und ihre Akteur\*innen wie über historisches Forschen und Schreiben reflektiert wird. Sie bietet Platz, konventionelle Perspektiven zu durchbrechen und neue Formen der Darstellung zu erproben. Die Zeitschrift bleibt der Sozialgeschichte verbunden, legt aber Wert darauf, die »große Geschichte« aus alltagsgeschichtlicher Sicht zu befragen. Im aktuellen Heft, herausgegeben von Frank Wolff und Jochen Lingelbach, widmen sich die Beiträger\*innen der Interdependenz von Grenze und Gesellschaft. Ausgehend von der These, dass das Geschehen an staatlichen Außengrenzen Rückwirkungen auf innergesellschaftliche Prozesse hat, analysieren sie diese als Grenzinternalisierung gefasste Wechselwirkung.

Dessen erweiterter Raumbegriff, der die Ortlogik der Heterotopie, die Gouvernementalität und die Räume der Darstellung in den Fokus rückt, liefert einen wesentlichen Kontext für das Verständnis der zeitgenössischen Stadt.transcript Verlag, Hermannstraße 26, 33602 Bielefeld 264 pp. Deutsch.
