An Introduction to Comparative Public Administration

The Politics of Bureaucracy

A thrilling history of how we fell in and out of love with a technology that changed not just the world, but changed us. 'Science and technology never seem more exciting than when James Gleick is writing about them' - Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction 'Forces you to see the world with new eyes. Blending expertise with a thrilling narrative . . . I loved it!' - Alice Loxton, author of Eighteen and Eleanor 'Masterful. I learned so much and enjoyed every page of this richly researched, playful, and insightful book' - Tiffany Jenkins, author of Strangers and Intimates A supernatural instrument bringing voices from afar, the telephone burst onto the world stage 150 years ago, a triumphant story of individual ingenuity and vision. Instantly, the ability to speak across vast distances began to transform every part of life: from business organization to military tactics, from news gathering to sex work. But the story of The Telephone is also one of corrupt scheming and ruthless tactics; the race to the patent office, to make money, a contest replete with bribery, fraud and speculation. And no one, not even its inventors, realised what the telephone was good for or how ubiquitous it would become. As the telephone settled into the background - in offices and on streets, on bedside tables and kitchen walls - people forgot how they ever lived without it. Now, as landlines, telephone books and telephone boxes vanish into the past, science writer James Gleick - bestselling author of Chaos - shows how this commonplace object irreversibly changed not only the world but who we are as human beings. 'Charts our distance-compressing, time-shifting telephonic adventure with exceptional brio and subtlety' - Stacy Schiff, author of The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams

A New History

The Telephone

The TV and Movie industries created the Italian American stereotypes we know today. 
These stereotypes don't reflect the extraordinary impacts of Italian American individuals of all ages and economic backgrounds on the cultural and economic advancement of the United States to address this, the Italian American Reputation Lab (IARL) is presenting an analytic report on how the historical and current Italian diaspora depict a very different narrative than the mainstream media of how Italian-Americans have contributed to shaping the cultural and economic fabric of the United States.

Davide Ippolito is one of the foremost international experts on Reputation Literacy, Reputation Management, and Contents Creation. He's a publisher, a filmmaker, and a producer of both feature films and documentaries which are available on Amazon Prime and Pluto. Founder of the streaming media platform Business+, he serves as the Chief Scientific Officer for the USA-based Italian American Reputation Lab (IARL). For a decade Ippolito consulted with prominent Italian organizations and media/TV outlets operating in the diplomatic, academic, and industrial sectors. In recent years he has been engaged by international and US entities such as the National Italian American Foundation (NIAF), the Columbus Foundation, and the United Nations. Davide has authored several books on the Reputation Management topic and on September 12th, 2023, he released his new docu-film "New York Solo Andata" at the Italian Cultural Center of New York City. Davide regularly writes for several Italian magazines and newspapers, and he participates in various Italian national television news programs and talk shows.

»Klug beobachtet, eisheiss geschlussfolgert. Jagoda Marinić beschreibt unsere Zeit, wie sie sein sollte.«&nbsp;
 Robert&nbsp;Habeck
 Die letzten Jahre waren geprägt von einer Aufbruchstimmung und dem Selbstbewusstsein vieler Minderheiten,&nbsp;
 gesellschaftlichen Wandel 
 vor allem durch 
 laute Töne 
 und harte Forderungen voranbringen zu können. Die einen sahen darin die große Chance, die Machtverhältnisse umzukehren, die anderen eine große Gefahr, eine Art »
 woke Wutpropaganda«
 , die das Bestehende zersetzen will.
 
 Seit über zehn Jahren engagiert sich Jagoda Marinić für den Aufbau einer 
 diverseren Gesellschaft
 . In Heidelberg hat sie das Interkulturelle Zentrum Heidelberg mit aufgebaut und das International Welcome Center mit konzipiert. Vor dem Hintergrund dieser Erfahrungen macht sie nun Vorschläge, wie wir aus dieser Radikalität herauskommen. Wie geht 
 Wandel vor Ort
 ? Was bietet unsere Zeit an Möglichkeiten jenseits von Positionierungen auf 
 Instagramkacheln
 , wie werden wir Menschen wieder zu handelenden Subjekten, statt uns in den Empörungsspiralen der sozialen Medien zu verlieren?
 
 Ausgehend von Begriffen wie »

 «, mit denen wir über Gesellschaft sprechen und Prozesse beschreiben, erzählt sie, wie es möglich wurde, ihre Ideen Wirklichkeit werden zu lassen und Menschen für ihren Traum zu begeistern – mit sanfter Radikalität.
 
 »Das Alleinstellungsmerkmal von Zukunft ist Anders, Veränderung, Neu. Darüber reden können schon nicht viele, es umsetzen noch weniger. Hier nun geht Jagoda Marinić auf ein Date mit Utopie und Realität, schaut mal amüsiert, mal verzweifelt dabei zu, wie Zukunft aus dem Ei schlüpft.«

LE DROIT DE MOURIR, LE DEVOIR DE VIVRE

A definitive collection of essays by one of the leading living theorists of social power, brought together here for the first time. In this consolidated summation of his works, Steven Lukes reflects on the central questions and changing nature of 'the power debate' as it has evolved since the publication of his seminal work Power: A Radical View. Including six essays on power as it relates to central themes of truth, domination and moral responsibility, and engaging with nine influential recent and contemporary theorists of power, Power and Domination and Other Essays provides a major critique of a debate that remains as alive and contentious as ever. Bringing up to date Lukes's work on power in one accessible volume, this book is an essential companion to Power: A Radical View, now in its third edition, and useful for all undergraduate and postgraduate students of the history of social and political thought, political science and political sociology.

Power and Domination and Other Essays

'The book we need right now ... Essential reading' Professor Tom Ellis, Imperial College London 'Raises some of the most challenging philosophical and ethical issues that humankind has ever had to address' Sunday Times 'A fascinating read ... I throroughly recommend for all audiences' Professor Mumtaz Patel, President of the Royal College of Physicians Imagine a future where we grow houses rather than build them. Where smartphones are living, clothing has opinions, and all human knowledge fits into a speck of DNA. A world where disease is a thing of the past, and the human lifespan is dramatically extended. To achieve this, says Adrian Woolfson - founder of the genome writing company Genyro - we must transform biology into a predictive, programmable engineering material. That means decoding the generative grammar of DNA: the language of life itself. It may then be possible to author genomes - and, if we choose, even rewrite our own. We are at the cusp of a technological revolution, driven by the convergence of artificial intelligence and synthetic biology. Currently at the scribbling phase - writing the genomes of viruses, bacteria and yeast - we will eventually author the genomes of extinct and never-before-realised species. Life will become computable, detached from its past, and no longer bound by Darwinian evolution. While offering extraordinary opportunities, this power also carries great risk and it is vital for everyone to understand what the future might hold. Genome writing can help preserve the planet, but may also undermine human nature and disrupt ecosystems. Bold, visionary and deeply original, On the Future of Species is an essential guide to how we should navigate this astonishing new world, offering a moral compass to help us do so safely, wisely and ethically. -- 'Explores the profound opportunities and challenges that arise when we turn evolution upside-down' John-Arne Rottingen, CEO of The Wellcome Trust 'An intriguing and disturbing analysis of a biological revolution' Guardian

Soziale Bewegung und Protest

Wie bilden sich Erwachsene politisch, wenn nicht primär Seminare, sondern Proteste, Initiativen und alltägliche Erfahrungen den Lernraum bilden? Anhand biografischer Interviews zeigt Tina Helwig auf, wie Engagement, Krisen, Betroffenheit und Zugehörigkeit zu sozialen Bewegungen informelle politische Bildungsprozesse hervorbringen. Dabei verbindet sie Bewegungs-, Biografie- und Erwachsenenbildungsforschung und eröffnet neue Perspektiven darauf, wie politische Selbstbildung entsteht. Die Ergebnisse bieten einen fundierten, interdisziplinär anschlussfähigen Einblick für Wissenschaft, Praxis und alle, die gesellschaftliche Beteiligung in ihrer ganzen Tiefe verstehen möchten.
