Remembering Marielle Franco from a Theological Perspective
In this Open Access book, Katharina Merian discusses memories of Marielle Franco from the perspective of the concept of dangerous memory introduced by the political theologian Johann Baptist Metz. Franco was an Afro-Brazilian human-rights activist and city councilor of Rio de Janeiro who was assassinated on March 14, 2018. Her murder elicited worldwide protest and empathy. Today she is considered an international symbol in the fight for human, women, and LGBTQ+ rights. Based on the memories of people from Franco’s inner circle, the study explores Franco’s life, what it meant to the people around her, and how her image was transformed following her murder. By critically engaging with Metz...

A rede da desinformação
Este livro foca a mudança de perspectiva para trabalhar com o fenômeno da desinformação nas plataformas de mídia social. Ao invés de tentar explicar o problema através de conceitos fechados, defende que o mesmo deve ser entendido como um sistema, acoplado ao sistema das próprias plataformas, e ancorado nos valores e nos modos de construção do capital destes. Assim, a desinformação vai além de um único tipo ou modo de construção de um conteúdo, sendo estabelecida como um conjunto de elementos conectados, estruturados e com dinâmicas próprias. A partir dessa discussão, o livro introduz os principais conceitos utilizados pela literatura, começando pela definição da desinf...

Anthropology in the Age of Technology
This book is the first to discuss, for an English-speaking audience, the ideas of the German-Jewish man of letters, thinker, and activist Günther Anders. Anders is one of few philosophers to deal intensely with the moral consequences of Auschwitz and Hiroshima. He can rightly be called the philosopher of the atomic age, and his thinking a philosophy of modern technology. In biting manifestoes, sharp aphorisms, and penetrating essays, in stirring diary notes and political fables, Anders strikes out the age in which we live. As a twentieth-century visionary, he exposes the absence of the moral and social imaginations that is necessary to prevent our history from ending in a total catastrophe....
