The software industry is regarded as one of the most creative and dynamic industries in the world. At the same time, sheltering software through copyright and patent law has been a major point of contention for the past 40 years. This doctoral thesis aims to provide new insights to this discussion. Through the use of sociological methodology, it supplies the necessary basic scientific reasearch regarding how software is developed and commercialized nowadays. Based on these findings, it then legally evaluates to what extent copyright and patent law are able to reflect these structures and determines how an optimal protection scope for computer programs could look like today. This doctoral thesis on one hand offers novel insights and points of view on existing legal doctrines. It further acknowledges as well as legally qualifies some prevailing trends in the software industry, such as Scrum and continuous delivery, that have so far been largely unaddressed by copyright and patent law.

First published in 1906, "At the Back of the Black Mans Mind" by Richard Edward Dennett looks at Bantu and Yoruba spiritual practices and philosophy, including nature worship, sacred kingship, and shamanism.By reading this book critically we can glimpse a system of nature worship, sacred kingship, and shamanism from before the colonial era, and get a hint of a very complex philosophy of esoteric correspondences which rival the better documented systems (e.g. the Upanishads, the I Ching and the Qabalah).However, the reader has to be aware many of its characterizations would today be considered colonialist or racist and it provides many theories about the facts presented which are incorrect or irrelevant.Richard Edward Dennett was an English trader operating out of the Kongo in the early 20th century who wrote a number of books that were influential on sociological and anthropological research on the cultures of West Africa. Dennett spent many years studying West African folklore, culture, and religion at the turn of the 19th century.

First published in 1896, "A Problem in Modern Ethics" by John Addington Symonds is an historically significant essay and one of the first attempts in modern times to examine homosexuality, putting it in a medical, historical and legal context, and to propose that civil rights should be extended to gay people. Along with Edward Carpenter and Walt Whitman, Symonds was one of the pioneers of gay rights and spirituality. Symonds was an aristocratic English man of letters who, by virtue of his class status, was able to lead a closeted but very active sexual life. He overcame the fear and loathing that Victorian society attached to homosexuality through an internal struggle which is today known as coming out. However, he had to live a double life, taking lovers from lower social classes while embedded in a sham marriage, and normally had write about his experiences in veiled language.Even this privately printed essay, which discusses homosexuality frankly, is extremely circumspect. We have to wade through quite a bit of Victorian pseudo-science and gobbledygook to get to the very valid points that Symonds was trying to make. Symonds concludes that homosexuality is innate and not a disease or mental disorder, gay sexuality is every bit as natural as heterosexuality, and homosexual acts between consenting adults should not be treated as criminal. These concepts are quite moderate (although at the time they were, of course, radical), and today are widely accepted.Symonds later wrote a companion essay to this, "A Problem in Greek Ethics", which drew on his extensive classical knowledge to examine homosexuality in ancient Greece.

In 1644, poet and prose-writer John Milton wrote his polemic "Areopagitica" to address British Parliament and its 1643 licensing order that required the censorship of all printed materials. Although the complete title, "Areopagitica: A Speech for the Liberty of Unlicensed Printing to the Parliament of England", implies that the text is oratory, Milton privileged text over speech as a means of communication and wrote the speech to be read rather than spoken. He takes the title from the Areopagiticus discourse, in which the Greek rhetorician Isocrates wrote a lecture that was also designed to be read and not delivered. Isocratess speech addresses the highest Court of the Areopagus (the word literally translates as the hill of Ares), offering advice from a private citizen for social reform. Similarly, Milton addresses Parliament from the stance of a private citizen who critiques the actions of the British government.(Source: supersummary.com)

"Our Revolution" (Essays on Working-Class and International Revolution, 1904-1917) is a compilation of key works by Leon Trotsky, written between 1904 and the end of April 1917, about the character and tasks of the Russian Revolution.Excerpt from "Our Revolution":...The world has not known us Russian revolutionists. The world has sympathized with us; the world abroad has given aid and com fort to our refugees; the world, at times, even admired us; yet the world has not known us. Friends of freedom in Europe and America were keenly anxious to see the victory of our cause; they watched our successes and our defeats with breathless interest; yet they were concerned with material results. Our Views, our party affiliations, our factional divisions...

"The Commonwealth of Oceana", published 1656, is a composition of political philosophy written by the English politician and essayist, James Harrington. Harringtons brief career as a political and historical theorist spans the last years of the Cromwellian Protectorate and the Restoration of 1660. The unsuccessful first attempt to publish Oceana was officially censored by Lord Protector Oliver Cromwell. It was eventually published, with a dedication to Cromwell.The aim of "The Commonwealth of Oceana" was to demonstrate that England was ripe for republican government and to provide a blueprint for the type of republic that ought to be adopted.

John Reeds "Ten Days that Shook the World" represents one of the 20th Centurys greatest political-literary achievements, being one of the first book length eye-witness accounts of the great Russian October Revolution.If youve ever read about the Russian Revolution, youve probably heard of "Ten Days That Shook the World".Reed, a U.S. communist and journalist for Metropolitan, traveled to Petrograd (currently Saint Petersburg) in 1917 to investigate what was really happening in Russia after the February Revolution. He found that there wasnt a complete socialist takeover of the government, but rather a bourgeois replacement of Czar Nicholas IIs empire. It was the landed elite and factory owners that were continuing to control the government and society. During this time, Reed presents challenges faced by Russians who were often without food.Nonetheless, Reed continued to follow revolutionary events in ensuing months, eventually leading to the revolutions October apex.One of the most important features of his book is his demystification of the myth that the Russian Revolution was a leader-centered movement. It was, instead, led by well-organized and established urban workers and rural peasants who had suffered under czarist Russia and who were suffering under the subsequent provisional government.What the people wanted was peace to leave World War I, which was making them go hungry. They also wanted workers control over industrial production, for peasants to gain control of land from feudal lords and to freely elect a revolutionary government. Reed recounted how Russian leaders, including Vladimir Lenin, rose up organically and were there to serve the will of the people.Reed also details the events of Oct. 24 and 25, when thousands of Bolsheviks took control of the national telegraph system, power stations, post offices, state banks and other important infrastructure around Petrograd from the White Guard. He says he was convinced that this was the best option for Russia, lest the country be taken over by Germany. When he returned to the U.S., Reed helped found the Communist Labor Party. He is one of only three U.S. citizens to be buried at the Kremlin.

The dream of a perfect society has fascinated thinkers and writers for centuries, giving rise to some of the most profound works of political philosophy and speculative fiction. The Utopia Collection, published by Steppenwolf Press, brings together seven groundbreaking texts that explore the possibilities and pitfalls of human civilization. From visions of ideal societies to cautionary tales of totalitarian control, this collection traces the evolution of utopian thought and its enduring impact on literature, philosophy, and political theory. The Social Contract by Jean-Jacques Rousseau lays the foundation for modern democracy, arguing that legitimate government arises from the collective will of the people. Utopia by Thomas More, the book that coined the term, envisions a society built on reason, equality, and communal living. New Atlantis by Francis Bacon presents a scientific utopia where knowledge is the key to human progress, while City of the Sun by Tommaso Campanella imagines a theocratic world governed by wisdom and shared enlightenment. As the centuries progressed, utopian dreams collided with the realities of power and control, giving rise to works that question the cost of engineered perfection. Anthem by Ayn Rand warns against the dangers of collectivism, celebrating the power of individual thought and self-determination. Men Like Gods by H.G. Wells transports readers to a parallel world where humanity has overcome war and oppression, offering a hopeful vision of what we might become. We by Yevgeny Zamyatin takes a darker turn, portraying a regimented dystopia where personal identity is sacrificed for absolute ordera chilling precursor to Orwells 1984 and Huxleys Brave New World. With its blend of utopian ideals and dystopian warnings, The Utopia Collection is an essential anthology for readers interested in philosophy, political theory, and speculative fiction. These works continue to shape conversations about freedom, justice, and the pursuit of a better world, making this volume a thought-provoking journey through humanitys greatest hopes and deepest fears.

"Discourses on Livy" is a work of political history and philosophy written in the early 16th century by the famous Italian writer and political theorist Niccolo Machiavelli, best known as the author of "The Prince."Machiavelli is known for his no-nonsense take on matters of war, ruling, and power in affairs of state. His treatise on these matters, "Discourses on Livy", is no different. In this work, Machiavelli openly states his educated opinion on how governments of his time should manage their people, goods, wealth, and other resources.Machiavelli accomplishes his vision through a comparison of governments of his day to the political and religious systems of ancient Rome. His comparison is not so much a mandate to adhere strictly to the Roman ideal, but an application of Roman principles to many different areas. Through applying concepts, rather than making hard and fast rules, Machiavelli is able to speak directly to potential adjustments within the political systems of his time.

Politicians have the reputation of being power-hungry manipulators. What you might not know is that the image of the modern politician may actually have roots in the 500-year-old document called "The Prince" by Niccolo Machiavelli. "The Prince" is a political treatise describing the less-than-honorable but all-too-realistic methods politicians (still) use to secure their power.Machiavelli wrote "The Prince" within two years after he was driven from office. A surviving letter indicates that the first title for it was On Principalities. The work was not published until 1532.

"Herland" is a utopian novel from 1915, written by feminist Charlotte Perkins Gilman. The novel is a feminist fantasy about a world without men, a radical utopia in which mothering is socialized. Gilman envisions a society that lacks domination by the masculine traits of aggressiveness and combativeness. Three American men stumble on a community of women and are at first convinced that such a superior society presupposes men, whom they believe to be hiding...Gilman creates a world valuing privacy and genuine community and eliminating the family. There are no men or families, only individuals. Children are reared by a community of women in a radical, alternative vision of collective motherhood. The women of Herland have no knowledge of sexuality; reproduction is by pathogenesis. Patriarchal culture is contrasted to the innocence and common sense of the Herlanders, who ridicule the way in which men define gender roles.

Réfugié à Bruxelles au sortir de la résistance armée contre le coup dEtat de décembre 1851, qui lui avait fait mettre ses jours en danger, Victor Hugo compose en quelques semaines le plus éclatant pa

Ardua impresa e sfatare una leggenda a cui crede sinceramente il 99 per cento degli italiani. Che 99 italiani su 100 siano stati convinti, da certi media dediti al sensazionalismo, che dietro quel duplice omicidio aleggino mandanti e depistaggi e un caso statisticamente unico. Ovviamente appare piu appetitoso inseguire teoremi complottisti che leggere le centinaia di carte e di testimonianze desecretate dalla Commissione Parlamentare dinchiesta ad hoc, da cui emerge la banalita di un atto criminale fra i tantissimi che hanno insanguinato la Somalia, un Paese allepoca senza legge.Ardua impresa e stata quella di districare in poche pagine il magma disinformativo accumulatosi sullomicidio, e Giuseppe Cassini ci e riuscito ricorrendo allaiuto anche di quei giornalisti che hanno vissuto in prima persona la tragedia dei loro due colleghi uccisi a Mogadiscio il 20 marzo 1994. Scriveva Amedeo Ricucci, inviato della Rai e buon amico di Ilaria Alpi: Chissa perche in Italia, quando muore un giornalista, devesserci sotto sempre un mistero da scoprire. E come se la morte sul lavoro, per noi, non possa essere un evento accidentale, ma debba collegarsi per forza a un mistero da svelare.Sarebbe gia un successo se questo ebook risvegliasse alla realta dei fatti qualche lettore non prevenuto. Va da se, infatti, che chi ha ciecamente creduto a complotti e depistaggi ne restera convinto, non fosse altro che per abitudine mentale. Ma chi in nome della ragione intende battersi contro le notizie fasulle dovrebbe riconoscere che per un quarto di secolo si sono alimentate fantasie sulla morte di Ilaria e Miran e che e giunto il momento di lasciarli riposare in pace.
