(((Semitism))): Being Jewish in America in the Age of Trump
by Jonathan WeismanIn the wake of Donald Trump's election and the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre, (((Semitism))) is a powerful book that examines how we can fight anti-Semitism in AmericaA San Francisco Chronicle Reader RecommendationThe Washington Post: "Timely...[A] passionate call to arms."Jewish Book Council: "Could not be more important or timely."Bernard-Henri Lévy: "It would be wonderful if anti-Semitism was a European specialty and stopped at the border with the United States. Alas, this is not the case. Jonathan Weisman’s new book (((Semitism))) shows why..."Michael Eric Dyson: "With eloquence and poignancy Weisman shows how hatred can slowly and quietly chew away at the moral fabric of society. We now live in an age where more than ever bigotry and oppression no longer need to hide in fear of reproach. The floodgates have opened. This is much more than a personal response to the bigotry he experienced because of his Jewishness; Weisman has written a manifesto that outlines the dangers of marginalizing and demonizing all minority groups. This powerful book is for all of us." Anti-Semitism has always been present in American culture, but with the rise of the Alt Right and an uptick of threats to Jewish communities since Trump took office, including the the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre, New York Times editor Jonathan Weisman has produced a book that could not be more important or timely. When Weisman was attacked on Twitter by a wave of neo-Nazis and anti-Semites, witnessing tropes such as the Jew as a leftist anarchist; as a rapacious, Wall Street profiteer; and as a money-bags financier orchestrating war for Israel, he stopped to wonder: How has the Jewish experience changed, especially under a leader like Donald Trump?In (((Semitism))), Weisman explores the disconnect between his own sense of Jewish identity and the expectations of his detractors and supporters. He delves into the rise of the Alt Right, their roots in older anti-Semitic organizations, the odd ancientness of their grievances—cloaked as they are in contemporary, techy hipsterism—and their aims—to spread hate in a palatable way through a political structure that has so suddenly become tolerant of their views.He concludes with what we should do next, realizing that vicious as it is, anti-Semitism must be seen through the lens of more pressing threats. He proposes a unification of American Judaism around the defense of self and of others even more vulnerable: the undocumented immigrants, refugees, Muslim Americans, and black activists who have been directly targeted, not just by the tolerated Alt Right, but by the Trump White House itself.

(180) Days of Quibi
by David J. Collis Terrence ShuMobile streaming app Quibi was ready to take the entertainment world by storm at its April 2020 launch. Backed by $1.75 billion, influential investors from Hollywood to Wall Street eagerly anticipated early success for this brainchild of Meg Whitman, former CEO of Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Jeffrey Katzenberg, former chairperson of Walt Disney Studios and co-founder of DreamWorks Pictures. Quibi's value proposition was to fill a 'white space' through seven to ten minute dramas, on a platform that was technologically sophisticated for users and extremely copyright friendly for content creators. Six months later, a disappointing lack of demand cornered Quibi into closing shop. Was it poor timing, or inherent business model viability? This case prompts discussion on the complete strategy landscape, from defining the opportunity set and value potential to understanding the ultimate outcome.

(An)Archive: Childhood, Memory, and the Cold War
by Zsuzsa Millei;Nelli Piattoeva;Iveta Silova;Mnemo ZINWhat was it like growing up during the Cold War? What can childhood memories tell us about state socialism and its aftermath? How can these intimate memories complicate history and redefine possible futures? These questions are at the heart of the (An)Archive: Childhood, Memory, and the Cold War. This edited collection stems from a collaboration between academics and artists who came together to collectively remember their own experiences of growing up on both sides of the ‘Iron Curtain’. Looking beyond official historical archives, the book gathers memories that have been erased or forgotten, delegitimized or essentialized, or, at best, reinterpreted nostalgically within the dominant frameworks of the East-West divide. And it reassembles and (re)stores these childhood memories in a form of an ‘anarchive’: a site for merging, mixing, connecting, but also juxtaposing personal experiences, public memory, political rhetoric, places, times, and artifacts. These acts and arts of collective remembering tell about possible futures―and the past’s futures―what life during the Cold War might have been but also what it has become. (An)Archive will be of particular interest to scholars in a variety of fields, but particularly to artists, educators, historians, social scientists, and others working with memory methodologies that range from collective biography to oral history, (auto)biography, autoethnography, and archives.

(Co)Designing Hope: Aqueous Landscapes in Transition
by Laura CiprianiExtreme weather events, droughts, floods, shifts in precipitation and temperature patterns, melting glaciers, sea-level rise, water salinization, and more generally, changes in the water cycle remind us that the climate crisis is mostly a water crisis. Perhaps even more serious is a crisis of imagination connected with thought and with creative, far-sighted action able to combine the visionary and the pragmatic. A response to these two crises can be provided by the disciplines of landscape architecture: these have always featured a plural, collective approach that comprises or originates from living systems and natural forces, on the involvement of human and nonhuman communities in the design process, and the inclusion of the time variable in future plans—without neglecting the necessary flexibility of creative and pragmatic thinking. How can landscape design and different forms of collaboration open new doors to face climate and water challenges? What hopes can spring from collective design in its broader meaning?This book sets out notions and ideas on water landscapes and (co)designed practices, identifying what hopeful routes might be taken for the three states of aqueous landscapes in transition—liquid, solid, and gas. The chapters show different scales and levels of design and collaborative practices: from large and governmental projects to small bottom-up interventions; from creative collaboration among designers to traditional community design; from participatory processes to nature as a co-designer for tackling the climate crisis. People, animals, plants, water, ice, fog, clouds, wind, sand, and rocks—all contribute to the cosmos’ landscape symphony, and designing together can become a seed of hope to listen and embrace the Earth’s climate changes.

(Curating) From A to Z
by Claire Fontaine Jens Hoffman<P> (Curating) From A to Z offers a summary of the development of curatorial practice over the last two decades seen through the eyes of curator Jens Hoffmann.

The entries are not only stimulating and intellectually rigorous, but also emotionally engaging.
(Des)empleo y bienestar en la era digital: Una lectura desde España
by Gregorio MartínEmpezar el debate de la falta de empleo y de todo lo que supone la tecnología digital Hablar simultáneamente de ganar bienestar y desempleo suena a contradictorio en nuestra actual concepción y escala de valores, ya que se nos hace difícil pensar que una persona pueda experimentar simultáneamente un incremento en su bienestar individual, cuando tiene dificultades para conseguir una legítima compensación económica derivada de su trabajo. <P><P> Sin embargo, por paradójico que resulte, es un hecho que la persona pueda beneficiarse de lo digital como consumidor y en cambio verse perjudicado como productor. <P><P>Estamos en las primeras etapas de una época de grandes cambios asociados al conocimiento y su aplicación por la tecnología. Las innovaciones digitales están rehaciendo la industria, la economía y la sociedad al igual que el vapor, la electricidad y de combustión interna hicieron antes. <P>La revolución digital es la mejor noticia económica del planeta tanto por las nuevas formas de fabricar cosas materiales, como para la obtención de productos cognitivos e inmateriales. <P>La digitalización incrementa la tarta de la riqueza y del bienestar pero ninguna ley dice que debe beneficiar a todos por igual y de hecho los beneficios económicos y laborales de esta oleada tecnológica están siendo muy desiguales, hoy la mayoría puede sentir que vive en peores condiciones económicas, aunque todos disfrutemos diariamente de las posibilidades de lo digital. <P>La digitalización destruye muchos más puestos de los que pueda crear por lo que se plantean situaciones muy espinosas. Anteriores revoluciones aumentaron considerablemente la demanda de mano de obra, así como un trabajo sostenido con crecimientos salariales. Las evidencias llevan a preguntarse si esta vez las cosas son diferentes. <P>En un camino que va de la tecnología al empleo, pasando por aquellos aspectos que mejoran la sensación de bienestar en estetexto acabamos planteando la pregunta de: ¿Cómo se organiza una sociedad en la que muchas personas a través de su ocupación ya no puedan obtener recompensas aceptables?
