What do search engines do? And what should they do? These questions seem relatively simple but are actually urgent social and ethical issues. The influence of Google's search engine is enormous. It does not only shape how Internet users find pages on the World Wide Web, but how we think as individuals, how we collectively remember the past, and how we communicate with one another. This book explores the impact of search engines within contemporary digital culture, focusing on the social, cultural, and philosophical influence of Google. Using case studies like Google's role in the rise of fake news, instances of sexist and misogynistic Autocomplete suggestions, and search queries relating to LGBTQ+ values, it offers original evidence to intervene practically in existing debates. It also addresses other understudied aspects of Google's influence, including the profound implications of its revenue generation for wider society. In doing this, this important book helps to evaluate the real cost of search engines on an individual and global scale.

Foucault's exploration of the history of sexuality, initiated in the 1960s through his lectures, reveals significant insights into his evolving ideas.

»Was ist Philosophie?« Gilles Deleuze' und Félix Guattaris Antwort will keine neue Philosophie sein, sondern die Voraussetzungen, die Unbekannten der Frage benennen.

This volume is a sequel to Power/Knowledge, based on Michel Foucault's lectures at the Collège de France in 1978 and 1979, and his 1977 interview on imprisonment. Foucault explores governmental rationalities, examining government as both a contemporary practice and a historical phenomenon, highlighting how governmentality has been conceptualized and enacted. His insights into political discourse and governmentality are complemented by essays from esteemed scholars influenced by Foucault's work. They delve into various modern forms of government, such as state reasoning, police functions, liberalism, security, social economy, insurance, solidarity, welfare, and risk management. A central theme is that government is not an instinctive or natural phenomenon but rather an invention shaped by historical contexts. The collection also investigates the relationship between governmental practices and criticism, suggesting that critique can drive meaningful change and inspire new practices. This unique anthology of articles and primary materials paves the way for renewed discussions on Foucault's contributions and the implications for liberalism, social policy, and insurance.
