<nettime> The Politics of Micro-Decisions


Hi nettimers,

what does it mean to be human in digital cultures? How has the ideal
image of a life in and for a community, which always constitutes the
core of politics, changed? Looking for answers to these pressing
questions, Florian Sprenger contributes a very thought provoking input
to Berliner Gazette's TACIT FUTURES project. His essay is now available
in both English and German.

"The politics of micro-decisions, or: visions for the democratic control
of movement"
