Автор: Theodore John Kaczynski Название: Technological Slavery: Enhanced Edition ISBN: 1944228039 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781944228033 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 3442.00 р. Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии.
Описание: Logical, lucid, and direct, Technological Slavery radically reinvigorates and reforms the intellectual foundations of an age-old and resurgent world-view: "Progress" is a myth. Wild nature and humanity are fundamentally incompatible with technological growth. In Technological Slavery, Kaczynski argues that: (i) the unfolding human and environmental crises are the direct, inevitable result of technology itself; (ii) many of the stresses endured in contemporary life are not normal to the human condition, but unique to technological conditions; (iii) wilderness and human life close to nature are realistic and supreme ideals; and, (iv) a revolution to eliminate modern technology and attain these ideals is necessary and far more achievable than would first appear.
Drawing on a broad range of disciplines, Kaczynski weaves together a set of visionary social theories to form a revolutionary perspective on the dynamics of history and the evolution of societies. The result is a comprehensive challenge to the fundamental values and assumptions of the modern technology-driven world, pinning the cause of the rapidly unfolding catastrophe on technology itself, while offering a realistic hope for ultimate recovery. Note: Theodore John Kaczynski does not receive any remuneration for this book.

Автор: Marcelo Corrales Compagnucci, Mark Fenwick, Stefan Название: Smart Contracts: Technological, Business and Legal Perspectives ISBN: 1509948252 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781509948253 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 6810.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: This book brings together a series of contributions by leading scholars and practitioners to examine the main features of smart contracts, as well as the response of key stakeholders in technology, business, government and the law. It explores how this new technology interfaces with the goals and content of contract law, introducing and evaluating several mechanisms to improve the 'observability' and reduce the costs of verifying contractual obligations and performance. It also outlines various 'design patterns' that ensure that end users are protected from themselves, prevent cognitive accidents, and translate expectations and values into more user-oriented agreements.
Furthermore, the chapters map the new risks associated with smart contracts, particularly for consumers, and consider how they might be alleviated. The book also discusses the challenge of integrating data protection and privacy concerns into the design of these agreements and the broad range of legal knowledge and skills required. The case for using smart contracts goes beyond 'contracts' narrowly defined, and they are increasingly used to disrupt traditional models of business organisation.
The book discusses so-called decentralised autonomous organisations and decentralised finance as illustrations of this trend. This book is designed for those interested in looking to deepen their understanding of this game-changing new legal technology.

Описание: In economics, researchers have stated that there is a limit to growth because natural resources are finite. However, with technological developments and the discovery of new natural resource reserves, the limits on growth and development have begun to disappear. New technologies promoting energy efficiency provide growth opportunity in new directions, and the development of technologies have a positive effect on the environment.
Perspectives on Ecological Degradation and Technological Progress explores the economic and social impacts of technological progress on environmental degradation from a multidisciplinary perspective. Other factors that may affect environmental degradation are analyzed, and indicators that may be important for the environment are determined. Covering topics such as economic growth, ecological degradation, and environmental violations, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for economists, ecologists, government officials, sociologists, environmental engineers and innovators, students and educators of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
