A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. This wide-ranging intellectual and media history traces China's emergence as a modern state in which boundaries blur between art and design, education and psychological conditioning. Tracking the parallel development of set design and social engineering from the 1920s to the 1960s, Background Matters examines the concept of huanjing (environment), a neologism introduced at the turn of the twentieth century that evoked heated intellectual debates and inspired frenzied aesthetic experimentation. Weihong Bao shows how efforts to reshape the mind consolidated the idea and art of environment by advancing a new theoretical notion of set design: both as aesthetic organization across film, theater, radio, and television and as social experimentation in worldmaking across geopolitical and transnational contexts. Inventive and breathtaking in scope, this book radically rethinks environment not as an external object but as the nexus of mind, medium, and society.

Set and Design, Mind and Environment

Background Matters: Volume 9

Studies in National Governance and Emerging Technologies

This book examines how artificial intelligence systems and their applications in security and defence are entangled with governance and policy processes in the EU. Combining concepts and insights from (critical) security studies and science and technology studies, it argues that behind the various AI-related policy initiatives in the EU are particular narratives on security and defence based on European fears of technological innovation and strategic gaps. In this respect, the book casts light on how such beliefs have become increasingly instrumentalized in the European governance dynamics, and subsequently embedded in successive policy initiatives and security and defence research programmes. It challenges conventional understandings of AI technologies as mere security and defence-enabling instruments, by providing a conceptually driven analysis of how certain visions of AI help govern and control one of the most dynamic emergent socio-technical fields. The book will appeal to all those interested in artificial intelligence, security studies, technology and European governance.&nbsp;
 
 Raluca Csernatoni is a Research Fellow at Carnegie Europe, where she works on the nexus between European defence and emerging technologies.

Artificial Security and the Politics of Hype in the EU

“In&nbsp;
 Principles of Imperfect Organized Crime Prevention
 , John Braithwaite offers the first global analysis of organized crime and its entanglements with state corruption, war crimes, and corporate crime, drawing on evidence from more than 50 countries. Through a distinctive empirical and normative lens, Braithwaite combines fine-grained analyses and illuminating insights with thought-provoking recommendations grounded in restorative justice, responsive regulation and a theory of assemblages. Essential reading for scholars of organized crime, this book is equally valuable for social scientists, policymakers, and practitioners seeking innovative strategies to loosen organized crime’s grip on societies and mitigate resulting harms.”
 –Leticia Paoli
 , Professor, Institute of Criminology, KU Leuven, Belgium
 This open access book is a novel contribution to criminology, a radical conjuncture in the evolution of restorative justice and responsive regulatory theory.When Brazil’s President Lula returned to power, he backed an assemblage of movements that included environmentalists, Indigenous leaders who were river keepers, forest keepers, and regulators to reduce deforestation of the Amazon at the hands of assemblages of illegal loggers, wildlife smugglers, agro-business, and corrupt officials. This steeply slowed accelerating destruction of the Amazon ecosystem. Simple reforms like resourcing forest fire brigades and environmental crime prosecutors also helped. Braithwaite’s theoretical point is that disassembling harm-producing assemblages, and replacing them with harm-preventing assemblages, helps us see how big changes to the character of organized crime do occur to impact things that matter, like the Amazon.Organized crime does most harm when it criminalizes states or is taken over by presidents of states. Braithwaite diagnoses data from 6000 interviews and documentary sources from over 50 countries to discern the states where this is happening. Which are the societies where the power of organized crime to do this level of harm has been disassembled?John Braithwaite
 is Emeritus Professor and Founder of the School of Regulation and Global Governance (RegNet) at the Australian National University.

Sara Weber erklärt, warum wir trotz ständiger Vernetzung einsam sind und wie wir den Weg zurück ins Offline-Leben finden. Eine Einladung, das Analoge endlich wieder zur Priorität zu machen.Wir schicken uns Emojis, statt über unsere Gefühle zu sprechen, und versacken in unserer vermeintlichen 'Me Time' online.

This book provides an in-depth exploration of the phenomenon of heritage crime in England and Wales. Drawing on a pastiche of empirical data comprised of qualitative testimony from police officers, victims of heritage crime, and heritage practitioners, it interrogates the following areas: i) the nature of heritage crime, ii) how is it conceptualized and operationalized within policing, iii) the victim of heritage crime and iv) opportunities for improved practice in this area. It speaks to academics and students who are interested in art, antiques and cultural property crime as well as policing and victimisation relating to these crimes.&nbsp;Dr Bethan Poyser
 is&nbsp;Lecturer in Criminology in the Department of Law and Criminology at Aberystwyth University, UK.

Heritage Crime and Victimisation

Die Boomer-Generation steht an einem biografischen Wendepunkt: Körperlich und geistig fit und in historisch beispielloser Freiheit aufgewachsen, spüren die Boomer heute eine sich verändernde Wahrnehmung von Zeit. Sie halten sich für jung - und erfahren zugleich die eigene Endlichkeit. Ein Affront.Jürgen Wiebicke wendet sich in dieser philosophischen und zugleich persönlichen Analyse seinen Altersgenossen zu und ergründet das vielschichtige Lebensgefühl einer Generation zwischen gewonnener Lässigkeit, der Sorge um den Verlust der eigenen Autonomie und dem Unbehagen, dass auch im Politischen die besten Jahre vorbei sind.Sein Buch ist eine kluge Standortbestimmung für alle Babyboomer und ein Plädoyer dafür, sich nicht in ein seelisches Biedermeier zurückzuziehen, sondern das eigene Älterwerden durch neue 'erste Male' und gewachsene gesellschaftliche Verantwortung aktiv zu gestalten.

Wer wir waren und was aus uns noch werden könnte

Wir Boomer

This book examines how ideological factionalism, cultural conflicts, and competing visions of justice have shaped America’s perception of multiculturalism. The author believes that the flash points disrupting America stem from feeling that one’s group is being disrespected, whether by threatening it with violence, or, more subtly, by a cold, exclusionary pattern. Building on the author's concept of religious humanism, the book offers a systematic explanation of the roots of factionalism and offers new pathways for embracing multiculturalism. In the process, the author critiques mainstream models of utility theory and identity politics, proposing a revised framework that headlines the search for meaning as the dominant soulful force shaping behavior. &nbsp;In later chapters, the focus shifts towards making multiculturalism work. Proposed reforms are grounded in civic purpose, offering economists, policymakers, and the public practical tools necessary to promote constructive dialogue and institutional inclusion. Successful multicultural policies should aim at promoting national unity by honoring hyphenated-American cultural identities.&nbsp;Victor Glass

Economic Theory, Cultural Memory, and the Case for Institutional Reform

Reframing Multiculturalism in the United States

Social Science for Social Justice

Cultural appropriation is one of the most contested issues of our time - but what does it actually feel like to have your culture taken, repackaged, and sold back to you? In this book, Rina Arya moves beyond familiar debates to place the lived experiences of minoritised communities at the centre of the discussion. Drawing on postcolonial theory, lived religion, cultural studies, and her experiences as a British South Asian, she examines how cultural forms are commodified, transformed, and returned to their communities with renewed authority. Arya argues that the deepest harms of cultural appropriation are not only economic or representational but also psychological, reshaping how people understand their culture and identity. Combining rigorous scholarship with personal testimony, this book challenges readers to rethink who has the authority to define culture - and what is lost when that authority shifts away from the communities from which culture originates.

Reclaiming the Debate on Cultural Appropriation

Born from a desire for creative freedom, web series often circumvent screen industry gatekeepers and attract smaller, niche audiences; but fewer views do not necessarily make the format, or its audience engagement, less valuable. This book looks behind the scenes to uncover how and why audiences engaged with nine Australian web series released between 2020 and 2023. Interviews with web series producers reveal their motivations, audience acquisition and maintenance strategies, funding methods, and platform specific approaches. These first-hand accounts are then compared with viewership metrics and the content of audience commentary, resulting in the illumination of social, cultural, and industrial values of audience engagement with these innovative productions. This book identifies key factors that influence audience behaviours such as perceived authenticity, platform choice, and the types, forms, and costs of engaging with web series. These factors are considered with respect to online community building, relationships between creators and audiences, and commercial uses of the format, resulting in the creation of a typology of web series audiences. Readers benefit from understanding the value and characteristics of each type of viewer across a diverse range of examples featuring differing audience demographics, zero to over $1 million budgets, and platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok. Vibrant narratives are used to convey each series' backstory, providing an informative and engaging reading experience for screen industry practitioners, marketing and broadcast professionals, and aspiring filmmakers. Academics and students in the fields of media studies, audience engagement, screen production, creative labour and entrepreneurship, social media, and algorithmic culture will also benefit from this research.

Söldner, Milizen, Freischärler, Partisanen, Parteiarmeen und Terroristen - irreguläre Truppen prägen den Krieg seit der Antike. Doch nach dem Kalten Krieg betraten zunehmend Sicherheits- und Militärfirmen die internationalen Gewaltmärkte. Sie bieten ein ganzes Portfolio von Dienstleistungen: als schmutzige Einsatzgruppen von Staaten, als Killerkommandos, Cyberkrieger, Putschisten oder fundamentalistische Aufständische. Welche Folgen hat die Privatisierung von organisierter Gewalt? Wie verändert sich das Kriegsgeschehen im 21. Jahrhundert? Wie kann man die Milizionäre kontrollieren oder gar in Zivilisten oder Politiker verwandeln? 
Andreas Heinemann-Grüder identifiziert die begünstigenden Umstände, die Täterprofile und die mögliche Resilienz gegen das Outsourcing des Krieges. Illustriert wird dies am Beispiel der russischen Gruppe Wagner, aber auch den Cyberkriegern der Gegenwart.
