Sinossi

"Censorship in Exhibitions" examines the suppression of artistic expression within art exhibitions, revealing how political ideologies, social norms, and power dynamics shape what art the public sees. The book doesn't treat censorship as isolated events, but rather as a recurring phenomenon with deep historical roots. For instance, the book explores how avant-garde art movements faced suppression in the early 20th century, contrasting this with contemporary controversies surrounding politically charged artworks. This exploration offers insights into how censorship operates and its effects on freedom of expression.

 
The book progresses thematically, beginning with case studies categorized by type of censorship, such as political or religious motivations. It then investigates the actors involved, like government bodies and museum administrators, and their agendas. Finally, it considers the consequences of censorship on artists and society, offering strategies to resist such actions. By examining historical patterns and motivations, the book reveals how censorship reinforces existing power structures. This approach challenges conventional narratives and provides a comprehensive overview valuable to art students, historians, and museum professionals.

Living the Technology Revolution...

Martin K. Ettington

This isn't a book filled with dry timelines or technical blueprints of the digital revolution. Instead, it's a firsthand journey—my journey—through one of the most astonishing transformations in human history: the rise of personal computing and the dawn of the digital age.
I was born in November 1955, at a time when the word “computer” was barely whispered outside of military labs and universities. My earliest memories include a bulky black-and-white television with rabbit-ear antennas, broadcasting a single channel. That flickering screen was my first encounter with electronic media—a far cry from the high-definition, touch-responsive world we live in now.
Over the decades, my path as an engineer and software developer placed me squarely in the midst of this technological upheaval. I didn’t just watch the future arrive—I helped build it, one line of code and one innovation at a time.
This book is a personal time capsule—a chronicle of what it was really like to live through the shift from analog to digital, from typewriters to tablets, from rotary phones to the infinite power in our pockets today. If you're a younger reader curious about how we got here, or someone who remembers the glow of vacuum tubes and the clack of punch cards, I invite you to walk with me through the decades.
You may be surprised by how far we’ve come—and how much we’ve forgotten along the way.
Many of the chapters are identified with the years or periods of time where these changes occurred.

7 Areas Without Laws - Exploring...

John Harpoon

Laws are the invisible threads that hold societies together, shaping behavior, enforcing order, and establishing the boundaries of right and wrong. Yet, scattered across the world, there are rare places where laws hold little to no authority—zones where governments have little presence, where no single entity enforces regulations, and where the concept of governance is fluid or entirely absent. These places, whether by accident of history, geopolitical disputes, or deliberate rejection of authority, exist on the fringes of civilization.  
  
This book explores seven of these anarchic zones, each with its own unique circumstances and challenges. From the open ocean, where maritime law is a complex tangle of loopholes and jurisdictions, to the frozen expanse of Antarctica, where no country claims true ownership, these areas defy traditional governance. Some, like Bir Tawil—a small strip of land between Egypt and Sudan—are unclaimed due to border disputes, while others, like Slab City in California or Freetown Christiania in Denmark, are self-declared autonomous communities that reject the rules of mainstream society.  
  
The existence of these lawless zones raises important questions: Can true freedom exist without laws? Is lawlessness always synonymous with chaos, or can people thrive outside the framework of government? In some of these areas, the absence of enforcement has led to disorder, crime, and exploitation. Pirates take advantage of international waters to operate freely, and smugglers use ungoverned territories to traffic goods and people. In other places, however, the lack of laws has fostered alternative communities built on mutual cooperation, artistic expression, and self-sufficiency.
