Summary:
Three conceptual figures organize Agamben's argument and the advent of his new method: the paradigm, the signature, and archaeology. Each chapter is devoted to an investigation of one of these concepts and Agamben carefully constructs its genealogy transhistorically and from an interdisciplinary perspective. And at each moment of the text, Agamben pays tribute to Michel(...)

Summary:
The discussion of care has a long philosophical tradition. This book retraces some episodes in this tradition—beginning with Plato and ending with Alexander Bogdanov, having passed through Hegel, Heidegger, Bataille and many others.

The central question is who the proper subject of care is? Should I care for myself or trust the others, the system, the institutions? Here, the concept of the self-care becomes a revolutionary principle that confronts the individual with the dominating mechanisms of control.

Summary:
When one defines "order" as a sorting of priorities, it becomes beautifully clear as to what Foucault is doing here. With virtuoso showmanship, he weaves an intensely complex history of thought. He dips into literature, art, economics and even biology in this book, possibly one of the most significant, yet most overlooked, works of the twentieth century. Eclipsed by his(...)

He dips into literature, art, economics and even biology in this book, possibly one of the most significant, yet most overlooked, works of the twentieth century. Eclipsed by his later work on power and discourse, nonetheless it was this volume that established Foucault's reputation as an intellectual giant. Pirouetting around the outer edge of language, Foucault unsettles the surface of literary writing. In describing the limitations of our usual taxonomies, he opens the door onto a whole new system of thought, one ripe with what he calls "exotic charm".

Summary:
Au début des années 2020, le consensus de la Silicon Valley se délite. Inégalités folles, stagnation de la productivité, instabilité endémique - la nouvelle économie n’est pas advenue. Les algorithmes sont omniprésents, mais ce n’est pas pour autant que le capitalisme s’est civilisé. Au contraire. La thèse de ce livre est qu’avec la digitalisation du monde se produit une grande régression. Retour des monopoles, dépendance des sujets aux plateformes, brouillage de la distinction entre l’économique et le politique : les mutations à l’œuvre transforment la qualité des processus sociaux et donnent une actualité nouvelle au féodalisme. L’ouvrage commence par proposer une généalogie du consensus de la Silicon Valley et met en évidence les cinq paradoxes qui le minent. La thèse centrale est ensuite déroulée, rythmée par des développements sur les GAFA, les chaînes globales de valeur ou encore le système de crédit social chinois. Les grandes ?rmes se disputent le cyberspace pour prendre le contrôle sur des sources de données. Les sujets sont attachés à la glèbe numérique. Dans l’ordre économique qui émerge, les capitaux délaissent la production pour se concentrer sur la prédation.

Summary:
Cette étude montre que le XXIe siècle marquera la fin de l'ère de l'anthropocène en raison du déclin des ressources énergétiques surexploitées par l'activité humaine (la déforestation, l'urbanisation, la pollution, etc). Elle examine les répercussions politiques, économiques et sociales de cette perte d'énergie et prône une gestion partagée des ressources pour sortir de la démesure.

Summary:
The senses are made, not given. This revolutionary realization has come as of late to inform research across the social sciences and humanities, and is currently inspiring groundbreaking experimentation in the world of art and design, where the focus is now on mixing and manipulating the senses. This book tracks these transformations and opens multiple lines of investigation into the diverse ways in which human beings sense and make sense of the world. It treats the human sensorium as a dynamic whole that is best approached from historical, anthropological, geographic, and sociological perspectives. In doing so, it has altered our understanding of sense perception by directing attention to the sociality of sensation and the cultural mediation of sense experience and expression. Howes challenges the assumptions of mainstream Western psychology by foregrounding the agency, interactivity, creativity, and wisdom of the senses as shaped by culture.

Two years after his "Vampyroteuthis Infernalis", Vilém Flusser engaged in another thought experiment: a collection of twenty-two “scenarios for the future.” This publication offers insight into the radical futures of a slipstream Anthropocene that have much to do with speculative fiction, and serves as both a warning and a nudge to imagine what we may yet become and be.

Sensing machines are everywhere in our world. As we move through the day, electronic sensors and computers adjust our thermostats, guide our Roombas, count our steps, change the orientation of an image when we rotate our phones.

There are more of these electronic devices in the world than there are people—in 2020, thirty to fifty billion of them (versus 7.8 billion people), with more than a trillion expected in the next decade. In ''Sensing machines,'' Chris Salter examines how we are tracked, surveilled, tantalized, and seduced by machines ranging from smart watches and mood trackers to massive immersive art installations.
