Digital Environments$7Generated by AI. 330 $aThis volume explores the evolving forms of collective agency in the twenty-first century, particularly in the context of social movements, digital environments, and cultural practices. Edited by Simone Knewitz and Stefanie Mueller, the book examines critical futures at the intersection of environmental humanities, speculative fiction, and science and technology studies. It highlights the role of collective agency in addressing social justice movements such as Black Lives Matter, MeToo, and Fridays for Future, while also interrogating the influence of corporations, communities, and crowds. With a focus on interdisciplinary analysis, the work sheds light on the challenges and opportunities of contemporary activism, digital technologies, and the aesthetics of collective action. It is an essential resource for scholars and readers interested in cultural studies, social movements, and the dynamics of collective organization in modern society.$7Generated by AI. 606 $aAesthetics 615 0$aAesthetics. 676 $a111.85 700 $aKnewitz$b Simone.$01278052 701 $aMueller$b Stefanie$01850454 701 $aArndt$b Maria$01782233 701 $aIngwersen$b Moritz$01850455 701 $aNitzke$b Solvejg$01354854 701 $aSchober$b Regina$01850456 701 $aTemmen$b Jens$01850457 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910946481203321 996 $aThe Aesthetics of Collective Agency$94443535 997 $aUNINA
