Über 1000 Seiten zur Politischen Soziologie, ein neues Handbuch herausgegeben von Martin Endreß und Benjamin Rampp im @nomosverlag.bsky.social. Ich habe den Beitrag zu Ausnahmezustand/Notstand geschrieben.
In the meantime the whole issue on communication media as crisis technologies has been published: journals.sagepub.com/toc/STS/curr...
We‘re glad to be part of it!
The article analyzes the app as a technopolitical device. Drawing on interviews with app developers and public health offices it excavates the citizenship norms inscribed into the technology and highlights the frictions with manual contact tracing by public health authorities.
Now a case of media archeology? Our article on the German contact tracing app just appeared in the journal Science, Technology and Society. It is part of the special issue „Tele-Crisis: Co-production of Crisis and Information and Communication Technology“

Please add me! Thanks.
"Die Rechtsfabrik" ist eine von Bruno Latours interessantesten Arbeiten - und dennoch relativ wenig beachtet. Ich durfte einen Beitrag zu der Studie in dem Band "Soziologische Theorien des Rechts" (2024) schreiben, hg. von Alfons Bora und @andreakretschmann.bsky.social - open access abrufbar.
@tbonacker.bsky.social and I are organizing a workshop on atmospheric violence as part of @sfb138.bsky.social. A warm welcome to all of our speakers!

New article by Leon Wolff in BioSocieties on the biopolitics of cryopreservation: „cryopreservation is linked to an imaginary of ecological separation that implies the idea that biodiversity can ultimately be preserved without a habitat.“

Poster zur Podiumsdiskussion „Was waren die Governmentality Studies?” am 25.6.2024, 18-20 Uhr, im Raum HS1098, KG I mit Brigitte Bargetz, Ulrich Bröckling, Verena Erlenbusch-Anderson und Sven Opitz
Poster zum Vortrag „Racializing Terrorism“ von Verena Erlenbusch-Anderson am 26.6. 18-20 Uhr im Haus „Zur Lieben Hand“, Großer Saal Abstract: In her talk, Verena Erlenbusch-Anderson explores the racialization of terrorism in the United States in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries through changing discursive formations of race. She illuminates its function as a tool of social exclusion in the service of white supremacy and examines the continued relevance of contestations of terrorism as a means to preserve white rule and a practice of resistance against white supremacy.
In Freiburg finden nächste Woche zwei Veranstaltungen statt, zu denen ich herzlich einladen möchte:

mit Brigitte Bargetz, Ulrich Bröckling, Verena Erlenbusch-Anderson und Sven Opitz @opitz_sven
