Blockchain and Web 3.0 Social Economic and Technological Challenges

Blockchain and Web 3.0 Social Economic and Technological Challenges

Blockchain is no longer just about bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general. Instead it can be seen as a disruptive revolutionary technology which will have major impacts on multiple aspects of our lives. The revolutionary power of such technology compares with the revolution sparked by the World Wide Web and the Internet in general. Just as the Internet is a means of sharing information so blockchain technologies can be seen as a way to introduce the next level: sharing value. Blockchain and Web 3. 0 fills the gap in our understanding of blockchain technologies by hosting a discussion of the new technologies in a variety of disciplinary settings. Indeed this volume explains how such technologies are disruptive and comparatively examines the social economic technological and legal consequences of these disruptions. Such a comparative perspective has previously been underemphasized in the debate about blockchain which has subsequently led to weaknesses in our understanding of decentralized technologies. Underlining the risks and opportunities offered by the advent of blockchain technologies and the rise of Web 3. 0 Blockchain and Web 3. 0 will appeal to researchers and academics interested in fields such as sociology and social policy cyberculture new media and privacy and data protection. | Blockchain and Web 3. 0 Social Economic and Technological Challenges

Dual Process Theory 2.0

Dual Process Theory 2.0

Dual Process Theory 2. 0 provides a comprehensive overview of the new directions in which dual process research is heading. Human thinking is often characterized as an interplay between intuition and deliberation and this two-headed dual process view of human thinking has been very influential in the cognitive sciences and popular media. However despite the popularity of the dual process framework it faces multiple challenges. Recent advances indicate that there is a strong need to re-think some of the fundamental assumptions of the original dual process model. With chapters written by leading scholars who have been actively involved in the development of an upgraded ‘Dual Process Theory 2. 0’ this edited volume presents an accessible overview of the latest empirical findings and theoretical ideas. . With cutting edge insights on the interaction between intuition and deliberation Dual Process Theory 2. 0 should be of interest to psychologists philosophers and economists who are using dual process models.

Materializing Memory in Art and Popular Culture

Materializing Memory in Art and Popular Culture

Memory matters. It matters because memory brings the past into the present and opens it up to the future. But it also matters literally because memory is mediated materially. Materiality is the stuff of memory. Meaningful objects that we love (or hate) function not only as aide-mémoire but are integral to memory. Drawing on previous scholarship on the interrelation of memory and materiality this book applies recent theories of new materialism to explore the material dimension of memory in art and popular culture. The book’s underlying premise is twofold: on the one hand memory is performed mediated and stored through the material world that surrounds us; on the other hand inanimate objects and things also have agency on their own which affects practices of memory as well as forgetting.

Housing Careers Intergenerational Support and Family Relations

Housing Careers Intergenerational Support and Family Relations

In this comprehensive volume authors from across the social sciences explore how housing wealth transfers have impacted the integration of families society and the economy with a focus on the (re)negotiation of the ‘generational contract’. While housing has always been central to the realization and reproduction of families more recently the mutual embedding of home and family has become more obvious as realignments in housing markets employment and welfare states have worked together to undermine housing access for new households enhancing intergenerational interdependencies. More families have thus become involved in smoothening the routes of younger adult members into and up the ‘housing ladder’. While intergenerational support appears to have become much more widespread it remains highly differentiated across countries cities and regions as well as uneven between social and income classes. This book addresses the increasing role that family support and intergenerational transfers in particular are playing in sustaining the formation of new households and the transition of young adults towards social and economic autonomy. The authors draw on diverse international cases and a variety of methodologies in order to advance our understanding of housing as a key driver of contemporary social relations and inequalities.

Cyber Resilience

Cyber Resilience

Modern cyber systems acquire more emergent system properties as far as their complexity increases: cyber resilience controllability self-organization proactive cyber security and adaptability. Each of the listed properties is the subject of the cybernetics research and each subsequent feature makes sense only if there is a previous one. Cyber resilience is the most important feature of any cyber system especially during the transition to the sixth technological stage and related Industry 4. 0 technologies: Artificial Intelligence (AI) Cloud and foggy computing 5G + IoT/IIoT Big Data and ETL Q-computing Blockchain VR/AR etc. We should even consider the cyber resilience as a primary one because the mentioned systems cannot exist without it. Indeed without the sustainable formation made of the interconnected components of the critical information infrastructure it does not make sense to discuss the existence of 4. 0 Industry cyber-systems. In case when the cyber security of these systems is mainly focused on the assessment of the incidents' probability and prevention of possible security threats the cyber resilience is mainly aimed at preserving the targeted behavior and cyber systems' performance under the conditions of known (about 45 %) as well as unknown (the remaining 55 %) cyber attacks. This monograph shows that modern Industry 4. 0. Cyber systems do not have the required cyber resilience for targeted performance under heterogeneous mass intruder cyber-attacks. The main reasons include a high cyber system structural and functional complexity a potential danger of existing vulnerabilities and “sleep” hardware and software tabs as well as an inadequate efficiency of modern models methods and tools to ensure cyber security reliability response and recovery.

Reading Picture Books with Infants and Toddlers Learning Through Language

Reading Picture Books with Infants and Toddlers Learning Through Language

Reading picture books with infants and toddlers facilitates their early language development with far-reaching benefits for their later reading abilities and academic achievement. While the importance of reading books with children aged from 3 to 5 years is widely recognised the benefits of reading with much younger children from 0 to 3 years who are still engaged in learning their first language are less well understood. This book will explore the seemingly simple practice of reading picture books with infants and toddlers aged 0–3 years from a range of perspectives. Not only do book-focused adult–child interactions support language and early literacy development in multiple ways such interactions can also at the same time foster intellectual social emotional and spiritual growth. By weaving together in an accessible manner the insights from several different discipline areas this book will explain how and why reading with infants and toddlers has such power to enrich their lives. Providing an evidence-based theoretically informed account Reading Picture Books with Infants and Toddlers supports educators parents and caregivers with the knowledge skills and motivation to provide frequent enjoyable and language-rich reading experiences with infants and toddlers. | Reading Picture Books with Infants and Toddlers Learning Through Language

Law and Time

Law and Time

Research on law's relationship with time has flourished over the past decade. This edited collection aims to put law and time scholarship into wider context advancing conversations on time and temporalities between socio-legal scholars anthropologists sociologists geographers and historians. Through a diverse range of contributions the collection explores how legal modalities of time emerge and have effects within wider clusters of social and political action. Themes include: law’s diverse roles in maintaining linear historicist models of time; law’s participation in the materialisation of times; and the unsteady effects of temporal pluralism and polytemporalities in law. De-naturalising the ‘time’ in law and time scholarship this collection positions time as something that can be enacted and materialised as well as experienced with distinct implications for questions of social justice.

Socio-Economic Segregation in European Capital Cities East meets West

Socio-Economic Segregation in European Capital Cities East meets West

Growing inequalities in Europe are a major challenge threatening the sustainability of urban communities and the competiveness of European cities. While the levels of socio-economic segregation in European cities are still modest compared to some parts of the world the poor are increasingly concentrating spatially within capital cities across Europe. An overlooked area of research this book offers a systematic and representative account of the spatial dimension of rising inequalities in Europe. This book provides rigorous comparative evidence on socio-economic segregation from 13 European cities. Cities include Amsterdam Athens Budapest London Milan Madrid Oslo Prague Riga Stockholm Tallinn Vienna and Vilnius. Comparing 2001 and 2011 this multi-factor approach links segregation to four underlying universal structural factors: social inequalities global city status welfare regimes and housing systems.

Open Borders Unlocked Cultures Romanian Roma Migrants in Western Europe

Open Borders Unlocked Cultures Romanian Roma Migrants in Western Europe

The book examines some of the dilemmas surrounding Europe’s open borders migrations and identities through the prism of the Roma – Europe’s most dispersed and socially marginalised population. The volume challenges some of the myths surrounding the Roma as a ‘problem population’ and places the focus instead on the context of European policy and identity debates. It comes to the conclusion that the migration of Roma and the constitution of their communities is shaped by European policy as much as and often more so than by the cultural traits of the Roma themselves. The chapters compare case studies of Roma migrants in Spain Italy France and Britain and the impact of migration on the origin communities in Romania. The study combines historical and ethnographic methods with insights from migration studies drawing on a unique multi-site collaborative project that for the first time gave Roma participants a voice in shaping research into their communities.

What is Consciousness? A Debate

What is Consciousness? A Debate

What is consciousness and why is it so philosophically and scientifically puzzling? For many years philosophers approached this question assuming a standard physicalist framework on which consciousness can be explained by contemporary physics biology neuroscience and cognitive science. This book is a debate between two philosophers who are united in their rejection of this kind of standard physicalism - but who differ sharply in what lesson to draw from this. Amy Kind defends dualism 2. 0 a thoroughly modern version of dualism (the theory that there are two fundamentally different kinds of things in the world: those that are physical and those that are mental) decoupled from any religious or non-scientific connotations. Daniel Stoljar defends non-standard physicalism a kind of physicalism different from both the standard version and dualism 2. 0. The book presents a cutting-edge assessment of the philosophy of consciousness and provides a glimpse at what the future study of this area might bring. Key Features Outlines the different things people mean by consciousness and provides an account of what consciousness is Reviews the key arguments for thinking that consciousness is incompatible with physicalism Explores and provides a defense of contrasting responses to those arguments with a special focus on responses that reject the standard physicalist framework Provides an account of the basic aims of the science of consciousness Written in a lively and accessibly style Includes a comprehensive glossary | What is Consciousness?
