Laptop, Tablet und keinen festen Arbeitsvertrag – das ist es, was die digitalen Bohème ausmacht. Denn die jungen Menschen wollen ein "intelligentes Leben jenseits der Festanstellung" führen. Ebay, MySpace und andere Seiten sind ihr Büros und dadurch verändern die jungen Menschen den Charakter des Internets. Mit diesem Buch wird das Zeitalter der digitalen Nomaden eingeläutet und aufgezeigt, wie sich die Welt der Arbeit durch das Internet verändert hat. Erklärungen zu wirtschaftlichen, technischen und sozialen Entwicklungen des neuen Lifestyle geben die beiden Autoren mehr als genug.

Story0
Warum positives Denken uns nicht weiterbringt, Schimpfen aber schon. Dieses Hörbuch ist ein Aufruf zum Widerstand gegen die Ideologie unserer Zeit: den Zwang des Glücks. Ratgeber und Duschbäder fordern uns auf, positiv zu sein. Wir sollen Scheitern als Chance begreifen und ständig unser Selbst entfalten. Doch der Terror des Positiven nervt, belastet uns alle und schwächt den Zusammenhalt: Wir betrachten Glück als Prestige und verstehen politische Probleme als persönliches Versagen. Das zeigt nicht nur die psychologische Forschung, sondern auch die Geschichte.

Story0
Bari non è una città qualsiasi del Sud. Tra i grandi capoluoghi meridionali, è il solo a non aver mai avuto un univoco centro di potere. È stata spesso divisa da istituzioni e forze sociali difformi e contrastanti: lo Stato e la Chiesa, la Magistratura e la Mafia, i fascisti e i comunisti, i ricchi e i poveri. Una città di antinomie e di opposizioni, che si è costruita grazie all'apporto faticoso di tribù di non baresi, gente proveniente da fuori che l'ha arricchita di fame e di lavoro.

Mach was aus dir und werde glücklich? Willkommen im Dauerstress der Selbstoptimierung!

Whether modest or monumental, they offer a living history of Britain, symbols of the forces that have shaped our modern landscape and icons in their own right. Iconicon is an enthralling journey around the Britain we have created since 1980: the horrors and delights, the triumphs and failures.

This is the story of New York City, told through the prism of one block, bordered by 23rd Street to the south, 24th Street to the north, Fifth Avenue and Broadway to the east and Sixth Avenue to the west. It’s a story of forest and cement, bird cries and taxi horns, theatres and factories, gambling dens and gourmet foods.

Story0
Die Texte Ernst Engelbrechts lassen tief in eine noch vom Kolonialgeist geprägte europäische Epoche blicken. Seine Umgangssprache pendelt zwischen Höflichkeit und herablassendem Leutnantsjargon und macht ihn zu einem der erfolgreichsten Autoren der Weimarer Republik. In Engelbrechts Worten zeigt sich das Sittenbild einer Gesellschaft, die sich nach dem verlorenen Krieg in einem neuen demokratischen System einzufinden versucht. Das ist interessant, erhellend, amüsant und manchmal auch erschreckend.

Hurricane Katrina made landfall in New Orleans on August 29, 2005, but the decisions that caused the disaster extend across the 20th century. After the city weathered a major hurricane in 1915, its Sewerage and Water Board believed that developers could safely build housing away from the high ground near the Mississippi. And so New Orleans grew in lowlands that relied on significant government subsidies to stay dry.

Tracing the history of Olneyville, a neighborhood in Providence, Rhode Island, that has traveled the long arc from urban decay to the cusp of gentrification, Joseph Margulies asks the most important question facing cities today: Can we restore distressed neighborhoods without setting the stage for their destruction? Is failure the inevitable cost of success?

London is a plutocrat's paradise, with more resident billionaires than New York, Hong Kong or Moscow. Far from trickling down, their wealth is burning up the environment and swallowing up the city. But what do we really know about London's super rich, and the lives they lead? To find out more about this secretive, security-heavy elite, sociologist Caroline Knowles walks the streets of London from the City to suburban Surrey, via Kensington, Notting Hill, Mayfair and elsewhere.

La relación entre la comida y las ciudades es fundamental para nuestra vida cotidiana. La comida da forma a las ciudades y, a través de ellas, nos moldea, junto con el campo, que nos alimenta. Podría decirse que alimentar ciudades tiene un mayor impacto social y físico sobre nosotros y nuestro planeta que cualquier otra cosa que hagamos. Pero pocos de nosotros en Occidente somos conscientes del proceso. La comida aparece como por arte de magia y rara vez nos detenemos a preguntarnos cómo podría haber llegado allí.

Bestseller-Autor Harald Welzer stellt fest, dass unsere Kultur kein Konzept vom Aufhören hat. Deshalb baut sie Autobahnen und Flughäfen für Zukünfte, in denen es keine Autos und Flughäfen mehr geben wird. Und sie versucht, unsere Zukunftsprobleme durch Optimierung zu lösen, obwohl ein optimiertes Falsches immer noch falsch ist. Damit verbaut sie viele Möglichkeiten, das Leben durch Weglassen und Aufhören besser zu machen. Diese Kultur hat den Tod genauso zur Privatangelegenheit gemacht, wie sie die Begrenztheit der Erde verbissen ignoriert.

The sometimes fragmentary tales of these people, their lives and deaths, are not included in official histories of a place. How, Ensign asks, has a large, socially progressive city like Seattle responded to the health needs of people marginalized by poverty, mental illness, addiction, racial/ethnic/sexual identities, and homelessness? Drawing on interviews and extensive research, Ensign shares a diversity of voices within contemporary health care and public policy debates.

Why has land reform been such a failure in South Africa? Will expropriation without compensation solve the problem? What can be done to get the land programme back on track? Tembeka Ngcukaitobi tackles these questions and more. Going back in history, he shows how Africans’ communal land ownership was used by colonial rulers to deny that Africans owned the land at all. He explores the effect of the Land Acts, Bantustans and forced removals. And he considers the ANC’s policies on land throughout the 20th century, during the negotiations of the 1990s, and in government.

Florida has long beckoned retirees seeking to spend their golden years in the sun, but, for many, the American dream of owning a home there was financially impossible. That changed in the 1950s, when the so-called "installment land sales industry" appeared out of nowhere to hawk billions of dollars of Florida residential property, sight unseen, to retiring northerners. For only $10 down and $10 a month, working-class pensioners could buy a piece of the Florida dream: a graded homesite that would be waiting for them in a planned community when they were ready to build.
