Therefore, the three journals have set up a dedicated editorial office gathering all contributors of these journals and arranging for the selection of the many papers submitted. The result is an issue presenting more than twenty contributions on the relation between the “Hidden King” and the production of the imaginary, allocated to the journals according to their respective vocation and editorial line. During the same year, a group of researchers affiliated to the Italian Association of Sociology (AIS) had proposed to create a new thematic section, entirely dedicated to the imaginary. The proposal followed its course and was approved. This triple issue on the “Hidden King”, involving many of the members of the new AIS section on the imaginary, is the first common initiative of our this research group.

A History of Virulence: The Body and Computer Culture in the 1980s ANTONIO A. CASILLI Abstract The recent turn in ubiquitous computing challenges previous theories of ‘technological disembodiment’. In a mediascape where technology permeates bodies, the current discourse of viral information insinuates elements of fear and risk associated with both physical presence and computer usage. This article adopts a socio-historical approach to investigate the factors underlying the early emer- gence of such features of our social imaginary by tracking them back to the computer culture of the 1980s. Analysing both mainstream and underground press sources from 1982 to 1991, a discursive core is revealed that revolves around the ‘computer virus’ metaphor. Popularized in this period, this notion came to resonate with mounting moral panic over the HIV/AIDS epidemic.

Convivialism is a broad-based humanist, civic, and political philosophy that spells out the normative principles that sustain the art of living together at the beginning of the twenty-first enturc y. Over and against neoliberalism, productivism, and populism, it values relations of cooperation that allow humans to compete with each other without hubris and violence, by taking care of one another and nature.

  • Two Complexities Abstract Introduction Author
    14/10/2018 Two complexities – Emergence: Complexity and Organization Two complexities The need to link complex thinking and complex adaptive systems science March 31, 2015 · Philosophy Author Alvaro Malaina Abstract This article reects the division in the eld of the study of complexity, between a mainly philosophical and epistemological approach (Edgar Morin called it “general complexity”) and a mainly scientic and methodological approach (called by Morin as “restricted complexity”). The rst perspective would be well represented by Morin’s “complex thinking,” while the second by the new “science of complex adaptive systems.” We show the potential and limits of each perspective, and conclude by claiming the need to relink both the perspectives into a comprehensive “paradigm of complexity” that is capable of providing, and following the original denition of Thomas Kuhn, at the same time a worldview (“general complexity”) and examples of scientic achievements (“restricted complexity”). Introduction According to Edgar Morin 21, we can distinguish between the two approaches to the phenomenon of complexity: “general complexity” and “restricted complexity.” On the one hand, a “general complexity,” is a fundamentally epistemological approach developed by scientists and philosophers such as Edgar Morin, Ilya Prigogine, Heinz von Foerster, Humberto Maturana, Francisco Varela, among others. It was developed primarily between the 70s and 80s from new disciplines such as cybernetics, systems theory, dissipative structures theory, catastrophe theory or autopoiesis theory. Morin’s complex thinking would be one of its best syntheses. On the other hand, a “restricted complexity,” is a primarily methodological approach developed by scientists such as Murray Gell-Mann, John Holland, Stephen Wolfram, Stuart Kauman, and Robert Axelrod since the creation in 1984 of the Santa Fe Institute in the United States and the improvement and sophistication of computational technologies.
