How Libraries ̶S̶u̶r̶v̶i̶v̶e̶ Thrive
How are libraries fighting misinformation and strengthening democracy? How are they addressing climate change and the pandemic of loneliness spreading across Europe? On a spectrum from surviving to thriving, libraries represent some of the last remaining safe public spaces for everyone. Discover how they are transforming Europe through contributions from library architect Francine Houben, climate activist Mikaela Loach, sociologist and Palaces for the People author Eric Klinenberg, #BookTok sensation Jack Edwards, media entrepreneur Esra Karakaya, and many more, including the librarians themselves.
Cultural Networks in Migrating Heritage
This book is a study of the role of cultural and heritage networks and how they can help institutions and their host societies manage the tensions and realise the opportunities arising from migration. In looking at past and emerging challenges of social inclusion and cultural dialogue, hybrid models of cultural identity, citizenship and national belonging, the study also sets out to answer the questions 'how'. How can cultural institutions leverage the power of cross-border networks in a contested place such as Europe today? How could they elaborate approaches and strategies based on cultural practices? How can the actions of the European Commission and relevant cultural bodies be strengthened, adapted or extended to meet these goals? Cultural Networks in Migrating Heritage will be of interest to scholars and students in museum and cultural heritage studies, visual arts, sociology of organisations and information studies. It will also be relevant to practitioners and policymakers from museums, libraries, NGOs and cultural institutions at large.
It's someone taking a part of you
It's Someone Taking a Part of You explores the choices and opportunities available to young women who are at risk of, or experiencing, sexual exploitation. Based on 55 case studies, it presents young women's accounts of their experience of violence and sexual exploitation, providing both quantitative and qualitative data about the problems they face. It identifies three different categories of risk, and recommends interventions that could take place at each stage to support the young women concerned. It's Someone Taking a Part of You will be of interest to all those working with young people, particularly field and residential social workers, and other professionals working in and with schools, sexual health services, drug prevention and treatment service, and the police.
Prostitution and Feminism
Feminists have long differed in their view of prostitution. While some regard it as a classic form of exploitation and degradation, others offer a more sympathetic interpretation of women's involvement in the sex industry. In this important new book, Maggie O'Neill seeks to explore the theoretical debates on prostitution and the relevance of these to the everyday lived experiences of women working on the streets. Based upon her own ethnographic research - defined as ethno-mimesis - the author seeks to undermine and demystify stereotypical images of prostitutes. She explores the narratives offered by prostitutes themselves, as well as other forms of their representation in film, art and photo...
Intervista con la New Media Art
Il libro Intervista con la New Media Art. L’osservatorio Digicult tra arte, design e cultura digitale si basa sull’esperienza di una delle più importanti piattaforme internazionali indipendenti in rete, fondata dal critico e curatore Marco Mancuso, che nel corso degli ultimi quindici anni ha monitorato l’evoluzione e l’impatto delle tecnologie e della scienza sull’arte, il design e la società contemporanea. Attraverso una serie di saggi scritti da alcuni dei suoi autori più importanti e una ricchissima collezione di interviste a sessanta artisti e designer che hanno segnato la storia della New Media Art dal 2005 a oggi, il volume evidenzia come i codici e i linguaggi dell’arte tecnologica siano gli strumenti ideali per un approccio multidisciplinare, una radicale osservazione e una profonda comprensione della realtà culturale ed espressiva che caratterizza il nuovo millennio.
