Book Knowledge Production Modes between Science and Applications 2

Download or read book Knowledge Production Modes between Science and Applications 2 written by Jean-Claude Andre and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-05-21 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inventing isn’t easy! After identifying and presenting the 12 "valleys of death", the real obstacles limiting the transition from an original idea to an innovative one, including the notion of socially responsible research, Knowledge Production Modes between Science and Applications 2 applies the concepts introduced in Volume 1. The book starts off with 3D printing, which has essentially broken through all barriers by offering remarkable advantages over existing mechanical technology. The situation is different for 4D printing and bio-printing. First of all, we need to tackle the complexity inherent in these processes, and move away from disciplinarity to find robust, applicable solutions, despite the obstacles. This is possible in niche areas, but currently, low profitability still limits their general applicability and the willingness of researchers to embrace interdisciplinary convergence....

Book Knowledge Production Modes between Science and Applications 1

Download or read book Knowledge Production Modes between Science and Applications 1 written by Jean-Claude Andre and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-02-28 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inventing isn’t easy! In this book, twelve “valleys of death” are identified which, following a linear approach, correspond to the various obstacles that limit the various passages from an original idea to invention, and then to industrial innovation. These various limiting factors have a variety of origins: disciplined scientific training, weak general and scientific culture, New Public Management, hierarchical support, funding, evaluation, proof of concepts, complexity management, and heuristic and interdisciplinary approaches on the one hand, and attractiveness for the new on the other. After an idea is formulated, these contexts bring small elements of science into play, but above all human aspects ranging from motivation and the quality of exchanges to responsibility. In short, it is a possible dynamic way of living together to promote innovations stemming from science. This is not easy, but if the invention is profitable for society, the downstream sector can greatly facilitate the various stages of commercialization.

Book The New Production of Expert Knowledge

Download or read book The New Production of Expert Knowledge written by Sotiria Grek and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Open Access book offers a novel perspective on the role of quantification in the making of education utopias through an analysis of expert knowledge and its producers. Drawing on empirical findings from the European Research Council funded project ‘International Organisations and the Rise of a Global Metrological Field’ (METRO, 2017-2022), Education, Quantification and Utopia focuses on the ways that metrological realism has constructed a well-supported epistemic infrastructure, built on relationships and practices that go beyond the mere objectivity and reliability of numerical evidence. The book’s chapters outline how the production of new forms of education expertise have led to ideational and institutional interdependencies, and ultimately the making of an intricate, fragmented and opaque knowledge and governance web.

Book Deleuze and Performance

    Book Details:
  • Author : Laura Cull
  • Publisher : Edinburgh University Press
  • Release : 2009-05-21
  • ISBN : 074863505X
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Deleuze and Performance written by Laura Cull and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2009-05-21 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was performance important to Deleuze? Is Deleuze important to performance; to its practical, as well as theoretical, research? What are the implications of Deleuze's philosophy of difference, process and becoming, for Performance Studies, a field in which many continue to privilege the notion of performance as representation, as anchored by its imitation of an identity: 'the world', 'the play', 'the self'?Deleuze and Performance is a collection of new essays dedicated to Deleuze's writing on theatre and to the productivity of his philosophy for (re)thinking performance. This book provides rigorous analyses of Deleuze's writings on theatre practitioners such as Artaud, Beckett and Carmelo Bene, as well as offering innovative readings of historical and contemporary performance including performance art, dance, new media performance, theatre and opera, which use Deleuze's concepts in exciting new ways. Can philosophy follow Deleuze in overcoming the antitheatrical tradition embedded in its history, perhaps even reconsidering what it means to think in the light of the embodied insights of performance's practitioners? Experts from the fields of Performance Studies and Deleuze Studies come together in this volume and strive to examine these and other issues in a manner that will be challenging, yet accessible to students and established scholars alike.

Book Performance  Identity  and the Neo Political Subject

Download or read book Performance Identity and the Neo Political Subject written by Fintan Walsh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book stages a timely discussion about the centrality of identity politics to theatre and performance studies. It acknowledges the important close relationship between the discourses and practices historically while maintaining that theatre and performance can enlighten ways of being with others that are not limited by conventional identitarian languages. The essays engage contemporary theatre and performance practices that pose challenging questions about identity, as well as subjectivity, relationality, and the politics of aesthetics, responding to neo-liberal constructions and exploitations of identity by seeking to discern, describe, or imagine a new political subject. Chapters by leading international scholars look to visual arts practice, digital culture, music, public events, experimental theatre, and performance to investigate questions about representation, metaphysics, and politics. The collections seeks to foreground shared, universalist connections that unite rather than divide, visiting metaphysical questions of being and becoming, and the possibilities of producing alternate realities and relationalities. The book asks what is at stake in thinking about a subject, a time, a place, and a performing arts practice that would come ‘after’ identity, and explores how theatre and performance pose and interrogate these questions.

Book Pierre Macherey and the Case of Literary Production

Download or read book Pierre Macherey and the Case of Literary Production written by Warren Montag and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-15 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection revisits A Theory of Literary Production (1966) to show how Pierre Macherey’s remarkable—and still provocative—early work can contribute to contemporary discussions about the act of reading and the politics of formal analysis. Across a series of historically and philosophically contextualized readings, the volume’s contributors interrogate Macherey’s work on a range of pressing issues, including the development of a theory of reading and criticism, the relationship between the spoken and the unspoken, the labor of poetic determination and of literature’s resistance to ideological context, the literary relevance of a Spinozist materialism, the process of racial subjectification and the ontology of Blackness, and a theorization of the textual surface. Pierre Macherey and the Case of Literary Production also includes three new texts by Macherey, presented here in English for the first time: his postface to the revised French edition of A Theory of Literary Production; “Reading Althusser,” in which Macherey analyzes the concept of symptomatic reading; and a comprehensive interview in which Macherey reflects on the historical conditions of his early work, the long arc of his career at the intersection of philosophy and literature, and the ongoing importance of Louis Althusser’s thought. Recent translations of Macherey’s work into English have introduced new readers to the critic’s enduring power and originality. Timely in its questions and teeming with fresh insights, Pierre Macherey and the Case of Literary Production demonstrates the depths to which his work resonates, now more than ever.

Book Authentic Co production of Public Space

Download or read book Authentic Co production of Public Space written by Paola Michialino and published by Presses univ. de Louvain. This book was released on 2006 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study tests the potential of a facilitated action-research approach in participative urban design projects to act as catalysts in countering social violence in distressed quarters of France. It evaluates the FAR programme (Formation Action Recherche pour la coproduction et gestion des espaces publics) in the region Nord – Pas de Calais as a local strategy for achieving the national objectives of social reform – as envisioned by President Mitterand and encapsulated in the national Politique de la Ville. Significantly, this study identifies the critical importance of positive political will at all levels in achieving the goals of the Politique de la Ville, and it provides a possible explanation for the failure of previous attempts to engage residents effectively. It also indicates possible future strategies for planning participative projects where they are intended to promote integrated social, urban and economic development.

Book Le petit manuel de la productivit

Download or read book Le petit manuel de la productivit written by Ben Elijah and published by Mardaga. This book was released on 2019-04-23 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adoptez de nouveaux réflexes utiles et simples pour être plus productif ! Améliorer sa productivité : c’est le cauchemar de tout entrepreneur, que ce soit au travail ou à la maison. Sur base d’exemples concrets et de diagrammes édifiants, ce Petit Manuel de la productivité vous propose d’adopter huit nouveaux réflexes capables de transformer votre procrastination en productivité, et votre surcharge de travail en sentiment jubilatoire du travail accompli. Au fil des pages et des conseils prodigués, vous apprendrez à adopter des habitudes productives pour faire fondre votre liste de choses « à faire » sans aucun effort. Avec ses exemples concrets et ses diagrammes édifiants, ce livre de conseils pratiques est parfait pour partir sans craintes à l'assaut de votre liste de choses à faire ! EXTRAIT J’ai souvent tendance à analyser mes idées à l’excès lorsqu’elles me viennent à l’esprit. Une idée brillante peut me perturber, j’y penserai en long et en large et la laisserai me distraire. Peut-être est-ce aussi votre cas. Cette attitude présente deux inconvénients majeurs : • Ce n’est ni le moment ni le lieu pour analyser une idée ; • Votre mémoire peut vous faire défaut. C’est curieux comme le milieu qui donne naissance à des idées leur est souvent hostile : par la suite, soit elles se perdent à tout jamais, soit, dans le meilleur des cas, il faut vous efforcer de la retrouver. La seule solution consiste à extirper de votre esprit l’idée qui s’y loge, et sans délai. Il est essentiel de prendre l’habitude d’enregistrer tout élément significatif qui se présente à votre esprit et de l’exprimer avec des mots. Cette méthode peut sembler élémentaire, mais elle est plus difficile à mettre en œuvre qu’il n’y paraît. Jetons-y un coup d’œil. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Ben Elijah est coach, conférencier et auteur. Il a fait ses débuts dans l’une des plus grandes entreprises technologiques. Après avoir surmonté les défis qu’il décrit dans son livre, il a commencé à travailler avec des individus et des organisations pour les aider à tisser une meilleure relation avec des informations souvent en conflit dans un monde complexe.
