Abstract

"Monografia zawiera wyniki badań poświęconych określeniu wrażliwości osobowego transportu drogowego w Polsce poprzez identyfikację charakteru i skali zmian dostępności transportowej oraz zmian obciążenia sieci osobowym ruchem drogowym w sytuacji powodzi (o różnych prawdopodobieństwach wystąpienia), prowadzonych w ramach projektu o numerze 2018/29/B/HS4/01020, który został sfinansowany przez Narodowe Centrum Nauki. W toku realizacji tak sformułowanego celu głównego opracowania podjęto się osiągnięcia grupy celów szczegółowych o charakterze poznawczym, metodycznym oraz aplikacyjnym. Badania prowadzono głównie na podstawie wtórnych danych dotyczących zasięgów obszarów zagrożonych powodzią w Polsce i ich zagospodarowania oraz sieci drogowej wraz z zagospodarowaniem jej sąsiedztwa. Publikacja może zainteresować badaczy zajmujących się geografią transportu lub - szerzej - geografią społeczno-ekonomiczną i gospodarką przestrzenną. Może być również pomocnym materiałem dla studentów kierunków, które w swoim programie odnoszą się do geografii transportu, dostępności transportowej czy mobilności przestrzennej. Treść pracy obejmuje zagadnienia, które mogą zostać wykorzystane przez specjalistów zajmujących się zarządzaniem kryzysowym czy też zarządzaniem infrastrukturą drogową w sytuacjach kryzysowych związanych z wystąpieniem powodzi."--

Abstract

The days of the Other are over in this age of excessive communication, information and consumption. What used to be the Other, be it as friend, as Eros or as hell, is now indistinguishable from the self in our narcissistic desire to assimilate everything and everyone until there are no boundaries left. The result is a 'terror of the Same', lives in which we no longer pursue knowledge, insight and experience but are instead reduced to the echo chambers and illusory encounters offered by social media. In extreme cases, this feeling of disorientation and senselessness is compensated through self-harm, or even harming others through acts of terrorism. Byung-Chul Han argues that our times are characterized not by external repression but by an internal depression, whereby the destructive pressure comes not from the Other but from the self. It is only by returning to a society of listeners and lovers, by acknowledging and desiring the Other, that we can seek to overcome the isolation and suffering caused by this crushing process of total assimilation

Abstract

"Le monde est déchaîné. La violence n'y a pas reculé, comme le pensent certains. Elle a changé de formes, et de logique, moins visible, plus constante : on est passé de l'esclavage au burn-out, des déportations à l'errance chronique, du tabassage entre collégiens à leur humiliation sur les réseaux sociaux, du pillage des colonies aux lois expropriant les plus pauvres... L'oppression sexuelle et la destruction écologique, elles, se sont aggravées. Plutôt qu'enrayée, la violence a été prohibée, d'un côté, pour « pacifier » policièrement les sociétés, et systématisée de l'autre, à même nos subjectivités et nos institutions : par la logique comptable, sa dynamique sacrificielle, par la guerre normalisée, la rivalité générale et, de plus en plus, les nouvelles images. Si bien qu'on est à la fois hypersensibles à la violence interpersonnelle et indifférents à la violence de masse. Dans le désastre néolibéral, le mensonge de l'abondance et la stimulation de nos forces de vie ont fait de nous des sauvages d'un genre neuf, frustrés et à cran, et non les citoyens affables que la « civilisation » voulait former. Pour sortir de ce circuit infernal, et de l'impuissance collective, de nouvelles luttes d'émancipation, encore minoritaires, détournent ces flux mortifères d'énergie sociale. Mais d'autres les convertissent en haines identitaires et en replis patriotes. Qui l'emportera ? De quel côté échappera toute la violence rentrée du monde ?"

Abstract

How is society being reshaped by the continued diffusion and increasing centrality of the Internet in everyday life and work? Society and the Internet provides key readings for students, scholars, and those interested in understanding the interactions of the Internet and society. This multidisciplinary collection of theoretically and empirically anchored chapters addresses the big questions about one of the most significant technological transformations of this century, through a diversity of data, methods, theories, and approaches.Drawing from a range of disciplinary perspectives, Internet research can address core questions about equality, voice, knowledge, participation, and power. By learning from the past and continuing to look toward the future, it can provide a better understanding of what the ever-changing configurations of technology and society mean, both for the everyday life of individuals and for the continued development of society at large.This second edition presents new and original contributions examining the escalating concerns around social media, disinformation, big data, and privacy. Following a foreword by Manual Castells, the editors introduce some of the key issues in Internet Studies. The chapters then offer the latest research in five focused sections: The Internet in Everyday Life; Digital Rights and Human Rights; Networked Ideas, Politics, and Governance; Networked Businesses, Industries, and Economics; and Technological and Regulatory Histories and Futures. This book will be a valuable resource not only for students and researchers, but for anyone seeking a critical examination of the economic, social, and political factors shaping the Internet and its impact on society.

Abstract

"This innovative collection examines key questions on language diversity and multilingualism running through contemporary debates in psycholinguistics and sociolinguistics. Reinforcing interdisciplinary conversations on these themes, each chapter is co-authored by two different researchers, often those who have not written together before. The combined effect is a volume showcasing unique and dynamic perspectives on such topics as multilingualism across the lifespan, bilingual acquisition, family language policy, language and aging, language shift, language and identity, and multilingualism and language impairment. The book builds on Elizabeth Lanza's pioneering work on multilingualism across the lifespan, bringing together cutting-edge research exploring multilingualism as an evolving phenomenon at landmarks in individuals', families' and communities' lives. Taken together, the book offers a rich portrait of the different facets of multilingualism as lived reality for individuals, families, and communities. This groundbreaking volume will be of particular interest to students and scholars in multilingualism, applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, and psycholinguistics"-- Provided by publisher.
