Book Synopsis Les Deux Révolutions industrielles du XXe siècle by : François Caron
Download or read book Les Deux Révolutions industrielles du XXe siècle written by François Caron and published by Albin Michel. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis le XVIIIe siècle, l'Occident vit au rythme des avancées technologiques : mécanisation, industrialisation et révolution informatique. Mais c'est à partir des années 1950 que ces progrès techniques finirent vraiment par engendrer une nouvelle société, celle de la consommation de masse. Pour comprendre cet extraordinaire essor des niveaux de vie, François Caron a non seulement mobilisé les instruments fournis par l'histoire des techniques et par l'économie de l'innovation, mais aussi replacé ces révolutions industrielles dans leurs contextes tout en analysant les relations d'interdépendance entre l'innovation et la demande sociale, entre l'innovation et la recherche institutionnalisée. François Caron dresse un portrait saisissant du siècle qui s'achève sur une recomposition à peu près totale des logiques économiques et sociales, provoquant une situation de crise par laquelle, une nouvelle fois, se repose la question de la finalité de la science et de la technologie.

Download or read book Dynamics of Innovation written by François Caron and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known as the leading historian of French railways, François Caron has also done significant work on topics as varied as electricity, water and steam power, the theory of innovation, the structure of enterprise, and other aspects of economic development in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In this volume, he brings together these different facets of his expertise in order to present a broad panorama of modern technology. Caron shows how artisanal know-how was adapted, expanded, and formalized during the three industrial revolutions that swept over Great Britain, France, Germany, and the United States in a comprehensive analysis of this long, complex, and continuous historical process, leading up to the twenty-first century. Thus, he illustrates the increasingly fruitful interaction between technological and scientific knowledge in modern times.

Download or read book Méliès Boots written by Matthew Solomon and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2022-04-28 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before he became an influential cinematic innovator, Georges Méliès (1861–1938) was a maker of deluxe French footwear, an illusionist, and a caricaturist. Proceeding from these beginnings, Méliès Boots traces how the full trajectory of Georges Méliès’ career during the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, along with the larger cultural and historical contexts in which Méliès operated, shaped his cinematic oeuvre. Solomon examines Méliès’ unpublished drawings and published caricatures, the role of laughter in his magic theater productions, and the constituent elements of what Méliès called "the new profession of the cinéaste." The book also reveals Méliès' connections to the Incohérents, a group of ephemeral artists from the 1880s, demonstrating the group’s relevance for Méliès, early cinema, and modernity. By positioning Méliès in relation to the material culture of his time, Solomon demonstrates that Méliès’ work was expressive of a distinctly modern, and modernist, sensibility that appeared in France during the 1880s in the wake of the Second Industrial Revolution.

Book Synopsis Prophets of Computing by : Dick van Lente
Download or read book Prophets of Computing written by Dick van Lente and published by Morgan & Claypool. This book was released on 2022-12-14 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When electronic digital computers first appeared after World War II, they appeared as a revolutionary force. Business management, the world of work, administrative life, the nation state, and soon enough everyday life were expected to change dramatically with these machines’ use. Ever since, diverse prophecies of computing have continually emerged, through to the present day. As computing spread beyond the US and UK, such prophecies emerged from strikingly different economic, political, and cultural conditions. This volume explores how these expectations differed, assesses unexpected commonalities, and suggests ways to understand the divergences and convergences. This book examines thirteen countries, based on source material in ten different languages—the effort of an international team of scholars. In addition to analyses of debates, political changes, and popular speculations, we also show a wide range of pictorial representations of "the future with computers."
Book Synopsis Shaping a Humane World by : Oliver Kozlarek
Download or read book Shaping a Humane World written by Oliver Kozlarek and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The generation of meaning is the primary precondition for acting and thinking. The essays in this volume contribute to a discourse on this matter with a decentred, globalized world in mind. The notions civilization, humanism and modernity - far from being exclusively Western ideas - may facilitate joint efforts of reflecting on the universality of current human conditions, particularly since such reflexion is possible from particular cultural perspectives. Modernity presents us with a second Axial Time in which the quest for a plural, but shared, humane world is the challenge.
