Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book explores how social networking platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp 'accidentally' enable and nurture the creation of digital afterlives, and, importantly, the effect this digital inheritance has on the bereaved. Debra J. Bassett offers a holistic exploration of this phenomenon and presents qualitative data from three groups of participants: service providers, digital creators, and digital inheritors. |

This interdisciplinary book will be of interest to sociologists, cyber psychologists, philosophers, death scholars, and grief counsellors. But Bassett's book can also be seen as a canary in the coal mine for the 'intentional' Digital Afterlife Industry (DAI) and their race to monetise the dead. This book provides an understanding of the profound effects uncontrollable timed posthumous messages and the creation of thanabots could have on the bereaved, and Bassett's conception of a Digital Do Not Reanimate (DDNR) order and a voluntary code of conduct couldprovide a useful addition to the DAI. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This curated selection of recent contributions from Contemporary Political Theory presents two conversations that have emerged among feminists who have published there. One records a variety of views about "Feminist Classics, Genres, Contestations," and the other presents a provocative focus on "Feminist Lives, Desires, Futures." Readers will find feminist voices in articles, Critical Exchanges, and exceptional book reviews, notable for both the authors and reviewers in dialogue there. An Editor's Introduction, and specially written Epilogue, introduce and reflect on the content. Readers will enjoy the careful, imaginative engagements in this volume - political and intellectual - as they think along conversationally with the feminists in this collection. Terrell Carver is Professor of Political Theory at the University of Bristol, UK. He has been co-editor-in-chief of Contemporary Political Theory since 2010. . |
