Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Relationships fall apart, marriages fail, couples break up - it happens to us all. Time corrodes passion and the routines of daily life kill the excitement that surrounds the emotion of the first encounter. The difficulty of uniting sexual pleasure with love, which Freud considered to be the most common neurosis in any love life, has become emblematic of a truth that seems undeniable: desire is destined to die if its object is not constantly renewed, if we do not change partner, if it is closed for too long in the restrictive chamber of the same bond.And yet what happens to these bonds when one of the two partners betrays the other, when the promise fails, when there is another emotional experience cloaked in secrecy and deceit What happens if the traitor then begs forgiveness Are they asking to be loved again and, having declared that it is not like it used to be, now want everything to go back to how it was Should we make fun of lovers in their attempts to make love last Or should we try to face up to the experience of betrayal, with the offence caused by the person we love most Should we not perhaps attempt to praise forgiveness in love.

Neuware - Positing online users as 'sleepwalkers', Tony Sampson offers an original and compelling approach for understanding how social media platforms produce subjectivities.Drawing on a wide range of theorists, including A.N. Whitehead and Gabriel Tarde, he provides tools to track his sleepwalker through the 'dark refrain of social media': a refrain that spreads through viral platform architectures with a staccato-like repetition of shock events, rumours, conspiracy, misinformation, big lies, search engine weaponization, data voids, populist strongmen, immune system failures, and far-right hate speech. Sampson's sleepwalker is not a pre-programmed smartphone junkie, but a conceptual personae intended to dodge capture by data doubles and lookalikes. Sleepwalkers are neither asleep nor wide awake; they are a liminal experimentation in collective mimicry and self-other relationality. Their purpose is to stir up a new kind of community that emerges from the potentialities of revolutionary contagion.At a time in which social media is influencing more people than ever, A Sleepwalker's Guide to Social Media is an important reference for students and scholars of media theory, digital media and social media.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - First published in 2012, Startup Communities became a blueprint for what it takes to build a supportive entrepreneurial community. Now regarded as a classic, the 'Boulder Thesis' created and popularized by Feld within the book generated enormous media attention nearly a decade ago.At that time, Boulder was an emerging startup laboratory--a hub of innovation building new tech businesses. It quickly accelerated into a world class ecosystem for entrepreneurs.

Startup Communities 2e describes what makes a startup community ecosystem first click, then hum, and in time, excel. From Boulder to Beijing and beyond, entrepreneurial ecosystems are driving innovation. Startup Communities 2e discusses and the necessary dynamics and pre-conditions of building communities of entrepreneurs who can feed off each other's talent, creativity, and support.In Startup Communities 2e, Feld will help you understand:\* The core principles of a vibrant startup community, re-examining his Boulder Thesis and exploring other historical frameworks.\* The attributes of leadership in a startup community that can help it thrive along with the classical problems any community will face during development.\* The importance of a university in a startup community, and how large companies can engage effectively with entrepreneurs.\* The importance of continuous improvement so growth does not stagnate.\* The common myths about startup communities.\* The opportunities to build startup communities in non-urban, or rural, places that are much less populated.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What does it mean for the future of the planet when one of the world's most durable authoritarian governance systems pursues 'ecological civilization' Despite its staggering pollution and colossal appetite for resources, China exemplifies a model of state-led environmentalism which concentrates decisive political, economic, and epistemic power under centralized leadership. On the face of it, China seems to embody hope for a radical new approach to environmental governance.In this thought-provoking book, Yifei Li and Judith Shapiro probe the concrete mechanisms of China's coercive environmentalism to show how 'going green' helps the state to further other agendas such as citizen surveillance and geopolitical influence. Through top-down initiatives, regulations, and campaigns to mitigate pollution and environmental degradation, the Chinese authorities also promote control over the behavior of individuals and enterprises, pacification of borderlands, and expansion of Chinese power and influence along the Belt and Road and even into the global commons. Given the limited time that remains to mitigate climate change and protect millions of species from extinction, we need to consider whether a green authoritarianism can show us the way. This book explores both its promises and risks.
