From the abundance of Post-Modern photographic strategies currently in use this book focuses upon what is surely the most spectacular: the "constructed" photograph. The term refers to works of photography in which the motif has been staged especially for the picture and in which the respective artist, in addition to his role as a photographer, also plays the part of director, stage and costume designer, make-up artist and from time to time of performer as well. The main section of the book is followed by a selection of works that recapitulates the pre-history of the "arranged and staged" photograph beginning in the late 1960s and recreates the climate in which the photographer-stagecrafters of the 1980s found their point of departure.

“A fascinating, provocative case that the metaverse will not merely transform our virtual experience—it may actually enrich the quality of our lives” (Adam Grant)—from the visionary co-founder of one of today’s most innovative technology companies “This important book offers a highly persuasive argument that the metaverse, a new kind of virtual world, marks a profound next stage in this long human quest for fulfillment through creation.”—Chris Anderson, head of TED The concept of “the metaverse” has exploded in the public consciousness, but its contours remain elusive. Is it merely an immersive virtual reality playground, one that Facebook and other platforms will angle to control? Is it simply the next generation of massive multiplayer online games? Or is it something more revolutionary? As pioneering technologist Herman Narula shows, the metaverse is the latest manifestation of an ancient human tendency: the act of worldbuilding. From the Egyptians, whose conception of death inspired them to build the pyramids, to modern-day sports fans, whose passion for a game inspires extreme behavior, humans have long sought to supplement their day-to-day lives with a rich diversity of alternative experiences. Rooting his vision in history and psychology, Narula argues that humans’ intrinsic need for autonomy, accomplishment, and connection can best be met in virtual “worlds of ideas,” where users have the chance to create and exchange meaning and value. The metaverse is both the growing set of fulfilling digital experiences—ranging from advanced gaming to concerts and other entertainment events and even to virtual employment—and the empowering framework that allows these spaces to become “networks of useful meaning.” Bloomberg Intelligence recently predicted that the metaverse will become an $800 billon industry by 2024. But its implications, argues Narula, will lead to far more awe-inspiring possibilities than a spigot of cash. The arrival of the metaverse marks the beginning of a new age of exploration—not outward, but inward—with the potential to reshape society and open the door to a new understanding of the human species and its capabilities. Rigorously researched and passionately argued, Virtual Society is a provocative and essential guide for anyone who wants to go beyond superficial headlines to understand the true contours and potential of our virtual future.

Project Report from the year 2009 in the subject Politics - Region: Near East, Near Orient, grade: 1,0, University of Stuttgart (Institut für Sozialwissenschaften, Abteilung Internationale Beziehungen und Europäische Integration), course: Regional Leading Powers, language: English, abstract: Is Iran a `regional leading power ́? How can leadership be conceptualised? How can its impact be measured? While leadership has often been equated with the mere possession of power capabilities, this study emphasises the social and ideational dimensions of leadership, taking recourse to symbolic interactionism, constructivism and reflexive-interpretative methodology. Discourses can be regarded as dynamic arenas in which claims to leadership are articulated, legitimised but also contested. Therefore, they are a commensurate means to grasp potential leadership-relations as well as to identify continuity or change in such relations. A starting point to assess the scope of leadership is to compare the representations of regional order of the potential leader and followers. If they are shared between the two parties and mostly shaped by the potential leader, leadership may be effective at least on a normative level. In the light of the nuclear conflict, which makes this study highly topical, following question is raised: To what extent are Ahmadinejad ́s visions of regional order shared by his political counterparts in the Gulf region?

The strong interest in crossing barriers and building upon dispersed resources and different competencies, combined with the expected high costs of doing so, has been the ground for justifying various governmental subsidies. In Europe, there is a certain prevalence of programs to promote and subsidize collaborative ventures. EUREKA is one such European framework for collaboration on R&D. This book presents projects in which Danish or Finnish partners collaborate with their foreign counterparts. The reports show that many projects are able to succeed due to a loose formal structure and strong social structure facilitating a constant reconstruction of the project organization and management.
