Sommario/riassunto

The papers collected here are those selected for presentation at the Second International Symposium on Handheld and Ubiquitous Computing 2000 (HUC 2000) held in Bristol, UK in September 2000. The symposium was the second in a series of symposia which explores new research in the area of emerging mobile, personal, and handheld technologies. The first event, HUC’99, was held in Karlsruhe (Germany), organised by the Telecooperation Office (TecO) of the University of Karlsruhe in close collaboration with the Center for Arts and Media Technology (ZKM). This previous event, the first of its kind in the world, attracted a large number of paper submissions, was attended by over 200 international delegates, and demonstrated the growing international interest in the area with contributions from the United States, Japan and Europe. The 18 papers collected here were chosen from 70 submissions to HUC 2000, and represent a valuable resource for those wishing to understand the themes being pursued in this vibrant and exciting area of technology. The papers range from work on intelligent environment and devices, user experience, and interface design, to research in context aware systems, wearable computing, and location-based services. Together, the papers represent a snapshot of the state of the art in research in handheld and ubiquitous computing. The symposium also attracted a large number of short paper submissions, and these are available in the Springer journal Personal Technologies volume 4, number 4, which was published in tandem with these proceedings.

Note generali

With his work »An Inquiry Into Modes of Existence: An Anthropology of the Moderns« (2013), Bruno Latour makes good on his promise to provide an alternative description of Western culture. He depicts modern conflicts of value and sketches out a diplomatic mission aimed at achieving a peace accord between cultures and salvation from the planetary climate catastrophe. With analyses on the different modes of existence – such as politics, economy, religion or technology – the contributors test the sociological content of Latour's findings and set them in relation with the preexisting body of knowledge. In this way, Latour's major work is not just critically inspected, but also openly debated in its entire scope for the first time.

Sommario/riassunto

Bruno Latour liefert mit seinem Werk »Existenzweisen. Eine Anthropologie der Modernen« (2014) eine neue Beschreibung der westlichen Kultur. Er beleuchtet das konflikthafte Verhältnis moderner Wertvorstellungen und skizziert eine diplomatische Mission, die auf einen Friedensschluss der Kulturen und die Rettung vor der planetarischen Klimakatastrophe abzielt.Der Band diskutiert und erläutert Bruno Latours Soziologie entlang von Existenzweisen wie Politik, Ökonomie, Recht, Religion oder Technik. Latours ambitioniertes Hauptwerk wird dabei nicht nur kritisch inspiziert, sondern erstmals offen und in seiner ganzen Bandbreite vorgestellt.

»Als Sekundärliteratur für die Auseinandersetzung mit ›Existenzweisen‹ oder ›Rechtsfabrik‹ nicht nur zu empfehlen, sondern unabdingbar.«
