Vorgaben der EU?), Datensicherheit, Datenschutz (Europäische Datenschutzgrundverordnung), Cyberangriffe, Wettbewerbsrecht (Zugangsansprüche gegen Monopolisten, zulässiger und verbotener Informationsaustausch, mögliche Kooperationen). Sodann werden Einzelbereiche von Industrie 4.0 (Internet of Production, Maschinenbau, künstliche Intelligenz, Elektromobilität, autonomes Fahren, Verkehr, Medizin, Bauwesen, Energiewirtschaft etc.) in ihren Besonderheiten beleuchtet.

    Abstract: »Alles wird sich ändern!« Dieser prophetische Ruf aus der IT-Branche ist inzwischen zur gängigen Einschätzung über die Tragweite der Digitalisierung geworden. Doch was bringt die Digitalisierung für Ökologie und Gerechtigkeit? Führt sie uns in eine smarte grüne Welt, in der alle vom technologischen Fortschritt profitieren und wir zugleich schonender mit der Umwelt umgehen? Oder steuern wir in einen digitalen Kapitalismus, in dem sich Geld und Macht auf wenige konzentrieren und die Wirtschaft noch weiter über die planetaren Grenzen hinauswächst? Steffen Lange und Tilman Santarius analysieren, wie sich die Digitalisierung bisher auf Energie- und Ressourcenverbräuche, Arbeitsplätze und Einkommensverteilung ausgewirkt hat, und entwickeln Design-Prinzipien für eine nachhaltige Digitalisierung. Damit die Digitalisierung die Welt auch wirklich smarter macht.
    Abstract: Biographical note: Tilman Santarius leitet die Forschungsgruppe »Digitalisierung und sozial-ökologische Transformation« an der TU Berlin und dem Institut für ökologische Wirtschaftsforschung. Er ist Ko-Autor mehrerer Bücher, zuletzt von »Der Rebound-Effekt«. Steffen Lange ist Ökonom am Institut für ökologische Wirtschaftsforschung und Mitglied beim Konzeptwerk Neue Ökonomie sowie bei Common Future. Er beschäftigt sich mit dem Zusammenhang zwischen Digitalisierung, Wachstum und Ökologie.

    Abstract: Des Deutschen liebstes Kind – sein Auto? Aus und vorbei! Die junge, urbane Bevölkerung nutzt im fröhlichen Wechsel CarSharing und Bike-on-Demand, Mitfahrbörsen und die Bahn: Sie will sich nicht mit Reifenwechseln und Blicken unter die Motorhaube belasten; sie sucht Premium-Mobilität, nicht aber das Premium-Auto vor der Tür. Michael Adler spürt diesem Trend nach und schlägt einen Bogen zur Zukunft der Mobilität. Er zeigt, wie aus dem Lifestyle der jungen Großstädter eine umweltverträgliche Fortbewegung für alle werden kann – und was wir dafür tun müssen. Von der Planung des öffentlichen Nahverkehrs bis zur »menschenfreundlichen Stadt« formuliert er eine konkrete Agenda für Gesellschaft und Politik. Damit aus dem schicken Trend eine nachhaltige Bewegung wird.
    Abstract: Biographical note: Michael Adler studierte Politikwissenschaften und widmet sich seither ökologisch sinnvollen Alternativen zum motorisierten Individualverkehr. Er ist Geschäftsführer der Service GmbH des Verkehrsclubs Deutschlands (VCD) und Chefredakteur der VCD-Zeitschrift fairkehr.

    Abstract: Environment and Society explores ways to promote the behavioural shifts necessary for creating a 'sustainable society'. Through a critical approach to the links between sustainability, policy and citizen engagement, the book argues that sustainability policy needs to move towards a positive perspective, utilizing the well-known techniques of segmentation and social marketing. Such 'mainstreaming' of sustainable lifestyles is likely to be the only effective means of engaging the majority of citizens in the environmental debate, given the major influence of the consumer society on individual aspirations and beliefs. Comprised of three substantive elements, Environment and Society explores the context for behaviour change policy, the approaches adopted by politicians and academic researchers, and the application of such approaches using empirical data from two major research projects. The book is richly illustrated using both theoretical and empirical data and provides an excellent companion to all researchers interested in sustainable lifestyles.

    Abstract: A number of factors, from soaring fuel prices to genetically modified agricultural products, have greatly refocused worldwide attention on the interrelationship between technology and society and the necessity for sustainable engineering and business practices. Technology, Humans, and Society focuses on building a model for business and engineering that will lead to a sustainable world. The challenge for engineering is to develop new technologies that enable economic growth and do not deplete irreplaceable resources and destroy ecological systems. No longer solely the domain of environmentalists and ecologists, "sustainable" or "green" business practices and engineering designs are becoming a central part of the planning of many of the world's most influential companies, such as Hewlett-Packard, Honeywell, Dow, and Agilent. Companies are overwhelmingly not only finding that sustainable business and engineering practices are good for environment, but also improve the image of the company and quite frequently the "bottom-line." Dorf's 1975 publication, Technology and Society (ISBN: 0878350470), sold over 70,000 copies. The completely new Technology, Humans, and Society is created to meet the swelling demand for unified practices of both business people and technologists in the creation of a "greener" sustainable world. * Readable discussion of key issues of sustainable engineering and business design and practice * Covers how to plan and implement a business practice that leads to an environmental, social and economic balance that results in profitable growth.
