    Abstract
    Eric Mülling untersucht den Einfluss von Massendatenauswertung auf Netzaktivisten. Dazu interviewt der Autor u.a. den ehemaligen WikiLeaks-Aktivisten Daniel Domscheit-Berg, netzpolitik.org-Redakteur Andre Meister sowie die Netzkünstler Carmen Weisskopf und Domagoj Smoljo der !Mediengruppe Bitnik. Grundlage des Buches ist die politische Theorie des zivilen Ungehorsams. Durch die Analyse der Experteninterviews nach Identität, Subkultur, Gewissensentscheidung und Strategie entsteht die Idee zu einer eigenen Konzeption digitalen Ungehorsams. Die anschließende Darstellung der Effekte von Big Data auf die digitalen Protestakteure zeigt, wie die neue Technologie die Aktivisten gleichermaßen bedroht wie motiviert.

    Rez. in: Spektrum der Wissenschaft 2019, H.4, S.92-93 (A. Lobe): "Der Autor hat eine theoretisch fundierte, kenntnisreiche und methodisch saubere Dissertation vorgelegt, die den Lesern die politische Dimension des Datensammelns vor Augen führt ... . Mülling hat mehrere Jahre an der Schnittstelle von Informatik und Politikwissenschaft geforscht ... . Im theoretischen Teil wären noch etwas mehr Verweise auf Nachbardisziplinen wie die Medienwissenschaft wünschenswert gewesen, wo der italienische Medientheoretiker und Philosoph Matteo Pasquinelli mit seinem Aufsatz zur »Gesellschaft der Metadaten« ein Grundlagenkonzept erarbeitet hat. Auch das Konzept des digitalen Ungehorsams wirkt in der Gesamtschau etwas unterspezifiziert. Müllings Dissertation ist dennoch ein wichtiger Debattenbeitrag, der sich wohltuend vom Jargon der Politikwissenschaft abhebt und einem interessierten Fachpublikum empfohlen werden kann."

    Abstract
    The realm of the digital offers both new methods of research and new objects of study. Because the digital environment for scholarship is constantly evolving, researchers must sometimes improvise, change their plans, and adapt. These details are often left out of research write-ups, leaving newcomers to the field frustrated when their approaches do not work as expected. Digital Research Confidential offers scholars a chance to learn from their fellow researchers' mistakes -- and their successes. The book -- a follow-up to Eszter Hargittai's widely read Research Confidential -- presents behind-the-scenes, nuts-and-bolts stories of digital research projects, written by established and rising scholars. They discuss such challenges as archiving, Web crawling, crowdsourcing, and confidentiality. They do not shrink from specifics, describing such research hiccups as an ethnographic interview so emotionally draining that afterward the researcher retreated to a bathroom to cry, and the seemingly simple research question about Wikipedia that mushroomed into years of work on millions of data points. Digital Research Confidential will be an essential resource for scholars in every field.

    Abstract
    Cyberscience will be different from traditional science. For two decades already, the scholarly community has witnessed a considerable increase in the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). As opposed to "traditional" science that does without networked computers, the notion of "cyberscience" captures the use of these ICT-based applications and services for scientific purposes. The basic assumption of this study is that ICT use impacts on the basic parameters of how academia is organised, of how it functions, and of what it produces. This book describes and analyses the use of ICT in the academic world; it explains the status quo based on an analytical model; it draws a realistic and differentiated picture of probable future developments; it assesses the impact of ICT on various aspects of academic activity and on the substance of research; and it discusses the implications for research policy and the steering mechanisms within the scholarly organisations. The overall conclusion is that we are in midstream of a forceful development. Cyberscience is already taking place, but will develop its full shape and potentials only later. The new media have only just begun to play a central role in a large array of scholarly activities, and in regard to the institutional setting. Not only academic communication in the narrow sense, but also the distribution of knowledge and, most importantly, even knowledge production are affected. Hence, the impact of ICT can hardly be underrated.

    Rez in: Wechselwirkung 26(2004) Nr.128, S.109-110: "In seinem englischsprachigen Buch "cyberscience - Research in the Age of the Internet" beschäftigt sich Michael Nentwich mit den Auswirkungen der Informationsund Kommunikations- (I&K) - Technologien auf den Wissenschaftsbetrieb. Zwei The sen stehen im Zentrum: Die erste ist, dass die I&K-Technologien einige Rahmenbedingungen und praktisch alle Formen wissenschaftlicher Tätigkeit betreffen. Ein systematisches Screening macht deutlich, dass sowohl der organisatorische Rahmen des Wissenschaftsbetriebs wie auch die Wissensproduktion sowie die Formen der wissenschaftlichen Kommunikation und schließlich die Wissensvermittlung (Lehre) direkt betroffen sind. Eine zweite, darauf aufbauende These lautet, dass die vielen Entwicklungen, mit denen sich Wissenschaftler konfrontiert sehen - angefangen von der ständigen Nutzung des Computers am Arbeitsplatz über die Verlagerung der Kommunikation mit Kollegen in Richtung E-mail bis zu neuen elektronischen Publikationsformen - nicht nur, wie zumeist angenommen, die Kommunikation beschleunigen, sondern das Potenzial zu qualitativen Veränderungen des Wissenschaftssystems haben. Diese These wird mit Hinweisen auf bereits eingeleitete oder möglicherweise bevorstehende Veränderungen hinsichtlich eines Kernstücks der wissenschaftlichen Kommunikation, nämlich des Publikationswesens, wie auch der Ortsgebundenheit von Forschung und schließlich hinsichtlich der Verteilung der Rollen im Wissenschaftsbetrieb belegt."

    Abstract
    Plattformen sind mehr als Unternehmen, sie sind die Herrschaftszentren unserer Zeit. Facebook, Google und Amazon ersetzen Marktplätze und öffentlichen Räume, doch sie entscheiden darüber, wer sich dort aufhalten darf und welche Regeln gelten. Von Staaten sind sie kaum zu kontrollieren, sie agieren selbst wie welche. Mehr noch: Plattformen stellen gängige Konzepte von Kapitalismus, Eigentum und Demokratie in Frage. Michael Seemann zeigt, was Plattformen ausmacht, woher ihre Macht kommt, wie sich mit ihnen umgehen lässt und welche Zukunft sie haben

    Abstract
    Social media connected the world--and gave rise to fake news and increasing polarization. Now a leading researcher at MIT draws on 20 years of research to show how these trends threaten our political, economic, and emotional health in this eye-opening exploration of the dark side of technological progress. Today we have the ability, unprecedented in human history, to amplify our interactions with each other through social media. It is paramount, MIT social media expert Sinan Aral says, that we recognize the outsized impact social media has on our culture, our democracy, and our lives in order to steer today's social technology toward good, while avoiding the ways it can pull us apart. Otherwise, we could fall victim to what Aral calls "The Hype Machine." As a senior researcher of the longest-running study of fake news ever conducted, Aral found that lies spread online farther and faster than the truth--a harrowing conclusion that was featured on the cover of Science magazine. Among the questions Aral explores following twenty years of field research: Did Russian interference change the 2016 election? And how is it affecting the vote in 2020? Why does fake news travel faster than the truth online? How do social ratings and automated sharing determine which products succeed and fail? How does social media affect our kids? First, Aral links alarming data and statistics to three accelerating social media shifts: hyper-socialization, personalized mass persuasion, and the tyranny of trends. Next, he grapples with the consequences of the Hype Machine for elections, businesses, dating, and health. Finally, he maps out strategies for navigating the Hype Machine, offering his singular guidance for managing social media to fulfill its promise going forward. Rarely has a book so directly wrestled with the secret forces that drive the news cycle every day"

    Abstract
    Sie sind eines Verbrechens angeklagt. Wer soll über Ihr Schicksal entscheiden? Ein menschlicher Richter oder ein Computer-Algorithmus? Sie sind sich absolut sicher? Sie zögern womöglich? In beiden Fällen sollten Sie das Buch der jungen Mathematikerin und Moderatorin Hannah Fry lesen, das mit erfrischender Direktheit über Algorithmen aufklärt, indem es von Menschen handelt. Keine Dimension unserer Welt, in der sie nicht längst Einzug gehalten haben: Algorithmen, diese unscheinbaren Folgen von Anweisungen, die im Internet sowieso, aber auch in jedem Computerprogramm tätig sind, prägen in wachsendem, beängstigendem Ausmaß den Alltag von Konsum, Finanzen, Medizin, Polizei, Justiz, Demokratie und sogar Kunst. Sie sortieren die Welt für uns, eröffnen neue Optionen und nehmen uns Entscheidungen ab - schnell, effektiv, gründlich. Aber sie tun das häufig, ohne uns zu fragen, und sie stellen uns vor neue, keineswegs einfach zu lösende Dilemmata. Vor allem aber: Wir neigen dazu, Algorithmen als eine Art Autorität zu betrachten, statt ihre Macht in Frage zu stellen. Das öffnet Menschen, die uns ausbeuten wollen, Tür und Tor. Es verhindert aber auch, dass wir bessere Algorithmen bekommen. Solche, die uns bei Entscheidungen unterstützen, anstatt über uns zu verfügen. Die offenlegen, wie sie zu einer bestimmten Entscheidung gelangen. Demokratische, menschliche Algorithmen. Dafür plädiert dieses Buch-zugänglich, unterhaltsam, hochinformativ.

    Medien sind der Treibstoff der Wissensgesellschaft. Unsere Gehirne sind ihr Motor. Dieses Buch führt Medienwissenschaften, Neurobiologie, Kognitionsforschung und evolutionäre Anthropologie zusammen zu einem disziplinübergreifenden Verständnis der Dynamiken von Mensch und (Medien-)Kultur. Matthias Uhl lässt deutlich werden, dass die Wahrnehmung und Wirkung medialer Kommunikation nur vor dem Hintergrund eines empiriebasierten Menschenbildes umfassend begriffen werden kann. Wer den Zusammenhang von Stimulus, Sinn und Synapse in den Köpfen der Bewohner des dritten Jahrtausends verstehen will, kommt an diesem Buch nicht vorbei.

    Abstract
    Der Begriff des Wissens geht davon aus, dass Tatbestände als 'wahr' und 'gerechtfertigt' angesehen werden. Die Gründe für solche Überzeugungen liegen in der Gewissheit der eigenen Wahrnehmung sowie in der Kommunikation dieser Wahrnehmungen. Beide Bedingungen befinden sich gegenwärtig im Umbruch: Unsere sinnliche Wahrnehmung wird durch Medien und Sensorsysteme gestützt, und die Verständigung über solcherart erzeugte Wahrnehmungen wird in wachsendem Maße telematisch kommuniziert. Die tendenziell globale Ausweitung der kollaborativen Erzeugung des Wissens durch computergestützte Netzwerke irritiert nicht nur die Vertrauensverhältnisse, die den Wissensprozessen zugrunde liegen, sondern auch die Struktur und Funktionen des Wissens selbst.

    Abstract
    The debate on Facebook raises questions about the use and users of this information service. This collected volume gathers a broad spectrum of social science and information science articles about Facebook.Facebook has many facets, and we just look forward above all to the use and users. The facet of users has sub-facets, such as different age, sex, and culture. The facet of use consists of sub-facets of privacy behavior after the Snowden affair, dealing with friends, unfriending and becoming unfriended on Facebook, and possible Facebook addiction. We also consider Facebook as a source for local temporary history and respond to acceptance and quality perceptions of this social network service, as well. This book brings together all the contributions of research facets on Facebook. It is a much needed compilation written by leading scholars in the fields of investigation of the impact of Web 2.0. The target groups are social media researchers, information scientists and social scientists, and also all those who take to Facebook topics.

    Abstract
    How sharing the mundane details of daily life did not start with Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube but with pocket diaries, photo albums, and baby books. Social critiques argue that social media have made us narcissistic, that Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube are all vehicles for me-promotion. In The Qualified Self, Lee Humphreys offers a different view. She shows that sharing the mundane details of our lives?what we ate for lunch, where we went on vacation, who dropped in for a visit?didn't begin with mobile devices and social media. People have used media to catalog and share their lives for several centuries. Pocket diaries, photo albums, and baby books are the predigital precursors of today's digital and mobile platforms for posting text and images. The ability to take selfies has not turned us into needy narcissists; it's part of a longer story about how people account for everyday life. Humphreys refers to diaries in which eighteenth-century daily life is documented with the brevity and precision of a tweet, and cites a nineteenth-century travel diary in which a young woman complains that her breakfast didn't agree with her. Diaries, Humphreys explains, were often written to be shared with family and friends. Pocket diaries were as mobile as smartphones, allowing the diarist to record life in real time. Humphreys calls this chronicling, in both digital and nondigital forms, media accounting. The sense of self that emerges from media accounting is not the purely statistics-driven ?quantified self,? but the more well-rounded qualified self. We come to understand ourselves in a new way through the representations of ourselves that we create to be consumed.

    Abstract
    The social dynamics of alternative facts: why what you believe depends on who you know. Why should we care about having true beliefs? And why do demonstrably false beliefs persist and spread despite bad, even fatal, consequences for the people who hold them? Philosophers of science Cailin OConnor and James Weatherall argue that social factors, rather than individual psychology, are whats essential to understanding the spread and persistence of false beliefs. It might seem that theres an obvious reason that true beliefs matter: false beliefs will hurt you. But if thats right, then why is it (apparently) irrelevant to many people whether they believe true things or not? The Misinformation Age, written for a political era riven by fake news, alternative facts, and disputes over the validity of everything from climate change to the size of inauguration crowds, shows convincingly that what you believe depends on who you know. If social forces explain the persistence of false belief, we must understand how those forces work in order to fight misinformation effectively.

    Seb Franklin sets out a media theory of racial capitalism to examine digitality's racial-capitalist foundations. The Digitally Disposed shows how the promises of boundless connection, flexibility, and prosperity that are often associated with digital technologies are grounded in racialized histories of dispossession and exploitation. Reading archival and published material from the cybernetic sciences alongside nineteenth-century accounts of intellectual labor, twentieth-century sociometric experiments, and a range of literary and visual works, The Digitally Disposed locates the deep history of digitality in the development of racial capitalism. Franklin makes the groundbreaking argument that capital's apparently spontaneous synthesis of so-called free individuals into productive circuits represents an 'informatics of value'.On the one hand, understanding value as an informatic relation helps to explain why capital was able to graft so seamlessly with digitality at a moment in which it required more granular and distributed control over labor, the moment that is often glossed as the age of logistics. On the other hand, because the informatics of value sort populations into positions of higher and lower capacity, value, and status, understanding their relationship to digitality requires that we see the digital as racialized and gendered in pervasive ways. Ultimately, The Digitally Disposed questions the universalizing assumptions that are maintained, remade, and intensified by today's dominant digital technologies. Vital and far-reaching, The Digitally Disposed reshapes such fundamental concepts as cybernetics, informatics, and digitality.
