Could Should Might Don't

How We Think about the Future

De Gruyter Handbuch / De Gruyter Handbook

In an increasingly complex and interdependent world, international organizations are vital components of global governance and arenas for cooperation and norm-building and standard setting. At the same time, they accumulate and provide knowledge and expertise and act as implementing agents in areas ranging from sustainable development over security and beyond. The Handbook of International Organizations offers both a conceptual introduction to academic debates and a broad overview of the goals, tasks and effectiveness of global, regional and issue-specific international organizations. Expanding the scope of the first volume substantively, the book now includes chapters on XXX international organizations. Chapters in the first part discuss international organizations in relation to theoretical debates in the study of International Relations and the current global context. In the second, lexical part, chapters outline the evolution, operations and current challenges of individual international organizations and provide sources for further research. Students of International Relations and related fields will find a reliable source to consult for seminal information and current trends in international organizations research.

Transforming Financial Management with Ai, Bi, and Data-Driven Decision Making

La historia, la literatura, la filosofía o las artes se han conformado como reflejo de la relación entre cultura y política. Su entramado de alianzas, oposiciones, enamoramientos y apropiaciones han definido, y definen nuestro mundo. Política y la cultura friccionan porque, en sí mismos, son dos poderes, aunque interdependientes, a los que incomoda el sometimiento.
En la obra de César Antonio Molina la reflexión sobre la cultura y la política se entrelazan de una forma veraz, como un Odiseo que ha navegado en las dos aguas, y no con la impostura y desconocimiento del que solo ha visto el mundo desde una sola perspectiva.
Teniendo como hilo conductor la relación entre el intelectual y el poder, el autor teje en este libro una urdimbre de erudición, sentimiento y sabia clarividencia por el que transitan insurgentes como Aristóteles o Derrida, Dante o Hölderlin, Zambrano y Arendt. Todos ellos vistos por la incisiva y erudita óptica del compañero de armas, del iniciado en los mismos cultos mistéricos de la literatura y el pensamiento.

Insurgentes

Most innovation advice breaks down when technology leads the market.
For decades, we've been taught that innovation starts with customer validation, empathy maps, and rapid feedback loops. That approach works when problems are well understood and solutions are incremental. But it quietly fails when feedback loops are slow, expensive, or nonexistent, when the technology itself must exist before customers can even imagine what is possible.
Build First, Market Later is a contrarian but practical book for engineers, technical founders, and system builders working at the edge of what is possible. It explains why breakthrough innovation rarely starts with market demand, why customers often cannot articulate needs for capabilities that do not yet exist, and why the most important innovations emerge from building first, then engaging the market when it is ready.
This book is not a rejection of Lean Startup or design thinking. It is an explanation of their limits, and a guide to when different innovation methods actually apply.
Drawing on examples ranging from lasers and semiconductors to software platforms, AI systems, medical technology, and open-source infrastructure, Farhad Abtahi shows how innovation fails not because of bad ideas, but because of misordered steps. Validation without physics. Stories without systems. Markets consulted before capabilities exist.
Build First, Market Later does not offer a recipe. It offers something more useful: a way to reason about innovation when the usual playbooks stop working.
If you are optimizing features, this book is not for you.
If you are building something that has never existed before, it is.

The Engineers Argument for Breakthrough Innovation

Build First, Market Later

Jahrbuch Musik und Gender

Wie klingt ein nonbinäres Subjekt? Band 17 des Jahrbuchs Musik und Gender entwickelt neue Perspektiven für die musikwissenschaftliche Genderforschung, indem er sie um posthumanistische Ansätze erweitert. Die Denkfigur der Nonbinarität bricht dabei nicht nur Geschlechtergrenzen auf, sondern auch die Grenzen zwischen Mensch und Nichtmensch, Natur und Technik.
Die Autor:innen aus Wissenschaft und Kunst schaffen mit ihren Beiträgen ein komplexes Beziehungsnetzwerk, das neue Hörweisen ermöglicht, alte und neue Verbindungen schafft: Sonic Fiction trifft auf Trauerarbeit um verlorene Stimmen; frühe Gendertheorie auf Öko- und Queerfeminismus. Ein vielstimmiger Band, der - wichtiger denn je - neue Formen des Zuhörens erschließt.

Sound und Gender im Posthumanismus

Non*binär!

The author decided to write this pamphlet to express his disappointment with Germany. 
In particular, Germany's development over the last 20 years gives him cause for concern, frustration and, very often, anger. 
On closer inspection of our country, especially from an international perspective, it is clear that there are significant signs of social decline, be it a lack of respect, dishonesty, insincerity, or a lack of commitment to anything or anyone, which is embodied by the so-called Merkel generation in particular. 

'What do my neighbours matter to me, as long as my life and my advancement are secure?' 
Since 2005, under the governments of Angela Merkel and her successors, Germany has fallen into a deep sleep, and waking up from it will be very painful. The idiotic austerity measures at any price and the reduction of state services are based on no foundation and no reasonable economic knowledge. The so-called black zero in the budget does not exist in economic theory. 

Germany's entire infrastructure, its moral state, its social constitution and its international reputation have suffered greatly. Intolerance, racism, hatred, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia have increased significantly. Politicians can no longer get this under control, and it is now up to us, society, to stand up and put a stop to these developments. 

The future of our country and our children, our prosperity, our happiness and our position in the world depend on it. 

Against this backdrop, this book puts its finger on the wounds of today's Germany. It adresses those who question themselves and society, a book against the hypocrisy and cowardice of German society and politics.

 But this behaviour can also be found in a similar form in other Western societies.

Lord, do not forgive them, for they know what they are doing!

„Organizations matter“ – kulturelle und künstlerische Wertschöpfung findet in der Moderne ihren Weg zu Publika, Rezipienten und Nutzern nicht mehr primär über private, elitäre Zirkel von Adel oder Klerus, sondern wird seit der Entfaltung bürgerlicher Öffentlichkeiten durch Kulturorganisationen vermittelt. Die Wahrnehmung und Nutzung von Kunst und Kultur ist seitdem primär das Resultat eines Organisationsprozesses, der von korporativen Akteuren – privatwirtschaftlichen Unternehmungen, öffentlichen und staatlichen Organisationen, gemeinnützigen Stiftungen – angeleitet wird und welcher durch seine immer stärke Ausrichtung am Markt sowohl neue Freiheiten aber auch Zwänge für Künstler einerseits und Nutzer andererseits geschaffen hat. Kulturorganisationen und ihr Personal bestimmen maßgeblich über die Produktion, Distribution und Rezeption von Kunst und Kultur. Sie legen z. B. die Kontexte und Orte ihrer Aufführung und Vermittlung fest, oder nehmen sogar Einfluss auf deren Pro-duktion und Nutzung/Re-Produktion, etwa durch die Einflussnahme auf künstlerische Wertschöpfung oder die Reklamation von Leistungsschutzrechten.

Umfragen unter verschiedenen Berufsgruppen haben ein erschreckendes Phänomen ans Licht gebracht: Gewalt gegen Amtsträgerinnen und das Personal öffentlicher Einrichtungen. Dies betrifft Bürgermeisterinnen und Feuerwehrleute, aber auch Gerichtsvollzieher, die Mitarbeiterinnen von Job-Centern und Schiedsrichter in Amateurligen. 
 
 Wilhelm Heitmeyer hat sich in einer Vielzahl vielbeachteter Studien mit Menschenfeindlichkeit und Gewalt befasst. Er analysiert diese im Zusammenhang mit der Ökonomisierung des Sozialen, mit Kontrollverlusten und einem zunehmenden Gefühl der Orientierungslosigkeit. In seinem neuen Buch zeichnet Heitmeyer nach, wie Verrohung und Gewalt den Alltag durchdringen. Und er fragt, wie solches Verhalten von durchrohten Strukturen in Institutionen beeinflusst wird.

Die Durchrohung der Gesellschaft

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Traditionally, the presence of pornography in American society has been mediated by two primary factors: legal restrictions and the relatively high cost of the product. The degree of legal restrictions on adult material has varied from era to era and community to community, but the porn premium has remained relatively constant. Given this, these should be heady days for adult business owners. Thanks to the Internet, distribution costs are virtually nil and even the most hardcore content is easily accessible in the smallest coastal hamlet and most rural farmhouse in America. Adult industry balance sheets should be bulging with profit. But in reality, far from it. The World Wide Web has completely eradicated both the legal restrictions and premium cost that used to govern adult industry economics. To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge thousands of eager subscribers premium prices. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes with a detailed analysis of the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button.Accessible to the general reader, this book will appeal to those who want to know more about the adult entertainment industry in America and will prove useful reading for students and researchers involved with a wide variety of academic disciplines including business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

The Pornography Business

This is the first comprehensive analysis of Southeast Asian globalization and development since 1870. Interpreting over 150 years of Southeast Asian economic history, Gregg Huff traces the impact of a first period of globalisation from the 1870s to 1929, the effects of Japanese occupation during World War II and its aftermath, and a second wave of globalisation since the late 1960s. He uses vent-for-surplus, dual economy and plural society concepts and argues that the response of those in Southeast Asia to periods of transport revolutions, innovation and opportunity in the world economy translated into rapid export-led growth. Recent swift growth enabled Southeast Asia to start to 'catch up' with the world's leading countries for the first time in its history. Achievements include industrialization, genuine social progress and numerous large urban regions. Nevertheless, the book contends that Southeast Asian development in its 'miracle economies' remains incomplete.

The Economic Growth of Southeast Asia

L'auteur a décidé d'écrire ce pamphlet afin d'exprimer sa déception vis-à-vis de l'Allemagne. L'évolution de l'Allemagne au cours des 20 dernières années lui donne notamment lieu à des inquiétudes, à de la frustration et très souvent à de la colère. 

En observant notre pays de plus près, notamment du point de vue de l'étranger, on constate que des symptômes de déclin social sont apparus de manière significative, qu'il s'agisse du manque de respect, de l'hypocrisie, de la fausseté, du fait de ne représenter rien ni personne, ce qu'incarnent notamment la génération Merkel. ' Que m'importent mes voisins, l'essentiel est que ma vie et mon ascension sociale soient assurées. ' Depuis 2005, sous les gouvernements d'Angela Merkel, mais aussi de ses successeurs, l'Allemagne est tombée dans un sommeil profond dont le réveil sera très douloureux. Les économies absurdes à tout prix et la réduction des prestations de l'État ne reposent sur aucune base ni sur aucune connaissance économique raisonnable. Le soi-disant ' zéro noir ' dans le budget n'existe pas dans la théorie économique. 

L'ensemble des infrastructures allemandes, son état moral, sa constitution sociale et sa réputation internationale ont fortement souffert. L'intolérance, le racisme, la haine, l'antisémitisme et l'islamophobie ont considérablement augmenté. La politique n'est plus en mesure de maîtriser cette situation et il appartient désormais à nous, la société, de nous lever et de mettre un terme à ces développements. 
L'avenir de notre pays et de nos enfants, notre prospérité, notre bonheur et notre position dans le monde en dépendent. 
Dans ce contexte, cet ouvrage met le doigt sur les plaies de l'Allemagne d'aujourd'hui. Un livre pour ceux qui s'interrogent sur eux-mêmes et sur la société, un livre contre l'hypocrisie et la lâcheté de la société et de la politique allemandes. Ce comportement se retrouve sous une forme similaire dans d'autres sociétés occidentales.

This volume tackles the pressing issue of online violence against academics, considering the diverse forms that cyberbullying and harassment can take, as well as their likely targets. Offering both theorizations of the phenomenon and a series of empirical case studies, it maps out possible countermeasures for creating a more resilient academic environment.The collection not only identifies the types of attacks and likely targets but also offers practical, evidence-based countermeasures to mitigate online violence. It fills a crucial gap in scholarship by exploring the intersections of online violence, gender, and minority experiences within the academic realm. Its unique contribution lies in its synthesis of empirical research, personal narratives, and practical recommendations, providing readers with a holistic understanding of the issue and moving beyond mere documentation to actively engage with the pressing question of how academia can foster a more inclusive and resilient environment.It will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in the sociology of work, scholarly careers, the challenges facing social researchers and issues of academic freedom.
