Abstract

Using selected examples and sources from the 1920s to 1960s, the social constructivist essays on technology rituals and technology acceptance offer a close-up look at some sources, some of which have been neglected so far, borne by the knowledge-guiding interest in their identity-creating, i.e. sociocultural significance, their social life in our lives. The aim is to implement the approaches of social construction of technology (SCOT). The present essays, in the style of integrated image-text interpretation, deal with selected mass-produced society image sources from calendars to advertising and quartet maps in an effort to place them in the context of time by questions about their significance for the identity construction of their target groups. The point is to include the aspect of massiveness in the interpretation of a source, to make its 'social life' visible to us by, among other things, highlighting the image routines and genre-like nature of the texts and advertising strategies as part of the identity-creating significance of technology. The selected period, with its focus in the 1920s to 1960s, reflects the fact that these decades represent an axial time, especially of mobility technology, but also of the 'democratization' of technology for all in the consumer society. Therefore, the two mobility techniques of rail and car are of particular importance, with a clear focus on the car as the identity machine par excellence. The term ritual is intended to indicate the regularity and permanence of the appearance of certain images and statements in the interviewed sources in order to contribute to an understanding of the technology-dependent social change and the mental formatting effect of image routines. At the same time it is about the development of source material, which has rarely been studied in the cultural history of technology or at least not with regard to the social construction of identities.

Abstract

The rapidly growing world population and increasingly dense settlements demand ever-larger and more complex buildings from today's engineers. In comparison to this technological progress, a building's equipment for emergency evacuation has been hardly developed further. This work presents a concept for a building evacuation system based on mobile devices. Furthermore, various algorithms for route planning with mobile devices and for indoor localization of mobile devices are addressed.

Abstract

By delivering the mindful writings from our selected authors, this book portrays one big idea: a new Human-Centered society that balances economics to resolve problems, especially in the use of an integrated area in cyberspace, physical space, and how it impacts the creative industries. Through The 8th Bandung Creative Movement, scholars from 15 Universities around the Asian and European countries have discussed this issue where Human-Centered society became the main consideration in the development.Three topics are presented to the readers. Firstly, "Sustainable Cities and Communities" explores the sub-fields that construct a more sustainable environment for society post-pandemic era, such as technologies, transportation, interior design, architecture, urban planning, etc. While "Art and Design: Recontextualization of Nusantara Tradition and Indigenous Culture" concerned the novel perspectives on recognizing cultural aspects that shape the face of creative industry, from cultural identity, visual and performing arts, pop culture to language and media. The last topic, "Changes and Dynamics in The Creative Industries," reviews the creative approach toward the industry's current trends, including marketplace, destination branding, or digital culture ecosystem. This book will enrich the mind of everybody who is an enthusiast of innovative research on creative industries, human-centered technologies, environmental design, and excellent society 5.0 post-pandemic era.

Abstract

This open access book explores the role of innovation in technological convergence processes in the EU regional space and shifts the focus from absolute and conditional income convergence to technological convergence and its determinants. Presenting new theoretical and empirical evidence on the determinants and trajectory of the EU region’s development and convergence, this book will appeal to scholars of economics and regional science, as well as practitioners and policymakers interested in the policy implications of regional technological convergence. The presented findings will also contribute to the development of the knowledge-based economy paradigm in the regional context. This is an open access book.

Abstract

The purpose of this open access edited collection is to discuss the role and importance of stakeholder engagement in a sustainable circular economy from multiple theoretical and practical perspectives. Developing and maintaining a circular economy is an essential step to a more environmentally friendly and socially inclusive society. In addition to redesigning products and business models to minimise waste and increase the reuse of materials, a transition towards a sustainable circular economy requires collaboration and co-operation between various stakeholders from all parts of society. An international team of contributors explore how stakeholder engagement can foster and support sustainable change, assessing current literature and laying out guidance for future study. The collection is of interest to academics and students of sustainability management and sustainable business models, stakeholder theory and practice, and the circular economy. Johanna Kujala is a Professor of Management and Organizations and Vice Dean for Research at the Tampere University, Faculty of Management and Business, Finland. Her current research interests focus on stakeholder theory and engagement, sustainable value-creation and circular economy, and corporate responsibility and business ethics. Anna Heikkinen is an Adjunct Professor, Senior Lecturer of Management and Organizations, and the Academic Director of the Responsible Business Master’s degree programme at the Tampere University, Faculty of Management and Business, Finland. Her research is primarily in the areas of stakeholder theory and corporate responsibility and sustainability, examining the relationships between business organisations and society. Annika Blomberg is a Senior Research Fellow at the Tampere University, Faculty of Management and Business, Finland. Her research topics include stakeholder engagement, collaboration and ethics and she is interested in critical approaches as well as aesthetically sensitive and language-focused methods.

Abstract

Inhaltsangabe: Dieses Open-Access Buch befasst sich mit der krisenbedingten Transformation touristischer KMU infolge von COVID-19. Fokussiert auf eine Flusskreuzfahrtdestination gelingt es, aus einer multidisziplinären Perspektive von Tourismus und Entrepreneurship heraus, neue Erkenntnisse über die COVID-Krise als Auslöser für Digitalisierung und Geschäftsmodellinnovation zu gewinnen. Business Model Innovation wird dabei als eine neue proaktive Maßnahme für touristisches Krisenmanagement identifiziert. Zudem lassen sich im Gegensatz zu den Wachstumsstrategien vor der Krise nun krisenbedingte Exit- und Innovationsstrategien bei den Akteuren feststellen. Einen besonderen Beitrag leisten die Ausführungen zu Flusskreuzfahrt und Destination, der Implementierung von Business Model Innovation im Krisenmanagement von Destinationen, aber auch die konkreten Praxisbeispiele wie z. B. virtuelle und interaktive Gästeführungsangebote für Menschen mit Handicap. Der Autor Dr. Yves Clément Zimmermann studierte Wirtschaftsrecht in Heidelberg und Saarbrücken (LL.M.), BWL mit Schwerpunkt Logistik in Ludwigshafen (MBA) und promovierte mit Auszeichnung (Ph.D.) im Fachbereich Wirtschaftswissenschaften an der Andrássy Universität für Nationale Exzellenz Budapest. Seine Affinität zu Tourismus und Flusskreuzfahrt entwickelte er als Geschäftsführer zweier mittelständischer Touristikunternehmen. Seit 2006 lehrt er zudem an Hochschulen in der Metropolregion Rhein-Neckar.
