Carrion-Murayari Gary: Berlinde de
Bruyckere. Khoros

Berlinde de Bruyckere. Khoros

This open access book critically analyses a wide range of consumer law issues generated or exacerbated by the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things challenges many of the dichotomies which have shaped current laws: goods-services, hardware-software, tangible-intangible, online-offline. The book focuses on 4 specific challenges: things-as-service, liability, bricking of physical devices through software control, and the potential for enhanced personalisation, especially for digital assistants. The chapters analyse specific applications such as smart homes, connected cars, and consumer wearables with a view to providing innovative solutions to the new challenges posed by the Internet of Things, and to steer the development of the Internet of Things in a fairer direction. As well as offering an important analysis of the potential for smart consumer laws in the Internet of Things, the book also provides important insights into the growing divergence between Germany's and the UK's consumer laws since Brexit. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by UKRI (Arts and Humanities Research Council) and the German Research Foundation (DFG).

Rights and Duties of Directors

This book analyses the ways in which Article 9 of the Aarhus Convention enables environmental access to justice in the Balkans, a region at the epicentre of extreme climate change events. Adopting a law-in-context approach, the chapters explore national cultures and driving forces shaping the implementation of Aarhus standards in Albania, Croatia, North Macedonia, Romania, Slovenia and Serbia, paving the way for their comparative assessment. The book combines EU law and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights with the bottom-up Europeanisation brought about by rising environmental protests and the activism of civil society organisations in the region. In doing so, it explores the extent to which these Balkan countries comply with requirements stemming from Article 9 of the Aarhus Convention, and whether, despite national differences, it is possible to talk about Europeanisation of access to justice in environmental matters. The interdisciplinary approach and geographical scope of the book make it an important read for academics and practitioners, as well as for the civil society sector and policy makers grappling with the normative and practical challenges around environmental access to justice - both in and beyond Europe.

WerkstattGeschichte

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.

Basic Art

Hilma af Klint malte, als würde sie das Universum kanalisieren. Seit ihrer Kindheit fasziniert von Botanik und Mathematik, begann sie ihre Karriere mit Landschafts- und Porträtmalerei, jedoch beschäftigten sie auch andere Themen: spirituelle Fragen, unsichtbare Energien, Muster, die zu groß für das bloße Auge sind. Ihre Kunst war untrennbar mit ihrer spirituellen Praxis verbunden. Mit einem Kreis von Künstlerinnen namens De Fem ("Die Fünf") hielt sie Séancen ab, hörte Stimmen von hohen Meistern und ließ sich von der Theosophischen Gesellschaft und den Theorien Rudolf Steiners inspirieren. Unermüdlich arbeitete sie daran, die verborgenen Dimensionen des Lebens zu kartografieren, und malte bis zur körperlichen Erschöpfung. Bis 1906 zeigten ihre Leinwände strahlenförmige Geometrien aus Spiralen und Kugeln, reich an Symbolen, Buchstaben und Wörtern, die die spätere Hinwendung zur Abstraktion von Kandinsky, Malewitsch, Mondrian und anderen vorwegnahmen. Ihre umfangreichen Gemäldezyklen - großformatigen Serie Malereien für den Tempel - stellten oft Dualitäten dar: Innen und Außen, das Irdische und das Esoterische, Mann und Frau, Gut und Böse. Als Vegetarierin, die die Festlegung der Geschlechter in Frage stellte, war af Klint ihrer Zeit eindeutig voraus; dennoch war sie ein Kind ihrer Zeit und zu Lebzeiten so gut wie unbekannt. Ihr beeindruckendes Werk blieb jahrzehntelang ungesehen, auf ihren eigenen Wunsch hin unter Verschluss gehalten. Erst in den 1980er Jahren begann die Welt, sie als echte Pionierin der abstrakten Kunst anzuerkennen. Dieses Buch lädt Sie ein, anhand einer Auswahl ihrer Werke in Hilma af Klints visionäre Welt einzutauchen. Ausführliche Essays bringen die Komplexität ihres Œuvres auf den Punkt und lassen ein einst geheimnisvolles Universum auf neue Weise erfahrbar werden.

An erudite and entertaining history of Moscow, a city whose rich past offers crucial insight into contemporary global politics 'A marvellous book' HELEN RAPPAPORT, author of The Rebel Romanov 'Every page pulses with individual stories and historical insights' MARK GALEOTTI, author of A Short History of Russia 'Morrison is the perfect biographer of Moscow' SHAUN WALKER, author of The Illegals Moscow stands at the centre of a nation comprising eleven percent of the globe's landmass, eleven time zones and nearly one hundred and fifty million people, some thirteen million of whom live in the capital. A Kingdom and a Village vividly brings to life Russia's heart and soul, tracing its transformation from a 'big village' into a metropolis of vast geopolitical import. It is a stranger-than-fiction arc. The last century alone has featured invasions and battles, the destruction and reconstruction of sacred landmarks, and the collapse of the Soviet republic - not to mention the rise of an authoritarian leader who is a keen student of Russian history. Morrison reaches back to the city's founding as a fortress on a river nearly a millennium ago. In the following centuries, any number of external forces - from Tatar Mongols and Swedes to Napoleon and Hitler - set their sights on Moscow, bolstering its self-conception as a glittering prize and site of perpetual defence and resurrection. Understanding Moscow not only unlocks the spellbinding mysteries of Russia's past, but also the grim logic of its present. A Kingdom and a Village is an essential guide to a people and a nation. 'Magisterial ... gripping' BEN RHODES, author of The World As It Is 'A mesmerising tale of how Moscow came to be' JILL DOUGHERTY, author of My Russia 'Combines taut storytelling with penetrating analysis' REBECCA REICH, University of Cambridge

A One-Thousand-Year History of Moscow

A Kingdom and a Village

“‘But who are we, if we forget everything that came before?’ Roza wonders in&nbsp;The Jilted Countess. This moving story of one woman finding a new life and new love in the aftermath of WWII answers this question, in the process taking on themes of PTSD, communism, and the plight of being an immigrant in postwar America.”—Meg Waite Clayton, internationally bestselling author of&nbsp;Typewriter BeachIn the aftermath of World War II, a young Hungarian émigré jilted by a G.I. persuades a Midwestern newspaper editor to help her find an American husband in this poignant novel, based on a true story, from the author of The French Winemaker’s Daughter.The war stole Roza Meszaros’s dreams of becoming a ballerina and her aristocratic family’s fortune. But the penniless Hungarian countess’s fate takes a hopeful turn when she meets an American soldier named Joe, who promises to marry her and take her to the States. After two years of waiting to obtain the necessary money and paperwork to emigrate, Roza finally arrives in Minnesota—and discovers Joe has married someone else.Determined to stay in America, Roza turns to popular newspaper columnist Cedric Adams to help her find a suitable husband. Sharing Roza’s story and her picture, Adams makes a special plea to his military readers. The response is overwhelming—nearly 1,800 World War II veterans bombard the paper’s offices with telegrams, flowers, candy, and cash, “a world-record” for marriage proposals, Adams tells Roza.Like a 1948 version of The Bachelorette, Roza ultimately chooses Finn Erickson, a former soldier and railroad locomotive engineer. Putting aside her romantic ideals, she and her new husband settle into the small riverside town of Red Wing, Minnesota. But when Roza unexpectedly runs into her former fiancé, things quickly become complicated.A captivating and unusual tale of love, loss, finding yourself, and creating your destiny, The Jilted Countess examines the meaning of marriage, the American dream, and what it takes to face our demons while searching for happiness.&nbsp;
