The second step analyses several neglected, misunderstood or otherwise used sources such as letters and reviews in order to outline the influence of both the Darmstadt circle of Sensitives (Empfindsamen) and the G{\"o}ttingen popular philosophy on Herder's first perception of Hemsterhuis. Against the common view that Herder was attracted from the outset by Hemsterhuis and his Lettre sur les d{\´e}sirs, the present investigation demonstrates that at the beginning (and in consequence of Leuchsenring's distorted use of Hemsterhuis) he mistrusted Hemsterhuis as a champion of egotical and self-related sensitivness and that only in a second moment - through the influence among others of the public debate on his Abhandlung {\"u}ber den Ursprung der Sprache und Hemsterhuis' Lettre sur l'homme - he discovered and entusiastically claimed his own affinity to Hemsterhuis.}, language = {de} } @misc{OPUS4-23536, title = {Antropologie evoluzionistiche e scienze sociali in Dieter Claessens}, series = {IRIDE- Filosofia e discussione pubblica}, volume = {31}, journal = {IRIDE- Filosofia e discussione pubblica}, number = {1}, issn = {1122-7893}, doi = {10.1414/90191}, pages = {105 -- 118}, language = {it} } @misc{Lippert, author = {Lippert, Ingmar}, title = {Carbon Classified?

This paper visits the corporate location at which this underlying element for their knowledge is assembled to give rise to carbon emissions. Using an actor-network theory (ANT) framework, the aim is to investigate the actors who bring together the elements needed to classify their carbon emission sources and unpack the heterogeneous relations drawn on. Based on an ethnographic study of corporate agents of ecological modernisation over a period of 13 months, this paper provides an exploration of three cases of enacting classification. Drawing on ANT, we problematise the silencing of a range of possible modalities of consumption facts and point to the ontological ethics involved in such performances. In a context of global warming and corporations construing themselves as able and suitable to manage their emissions, and, additionally, given that the construction of carbon emissions has performative consequences, the underlying practices need to be declassified, i.e. opened for public scrutiny.

These hydroelectric projects have caused concern among residents adjacent to the targeted rivers to the extent that a socioenvironmental conflict has erupted in several communities in the southern Pacific side of the country, which I refer to as "water worlds". I use the term "water worlds" both to transcend the limits of a human-focused notion of community, and to refer to the mutually sustaining confluence of relations between the materiality of water, human and non-human living beings, knowledge claims and practices (acts-of-knowing) and their corresponding socioenvironmental imaginaries in particular territories and river water areas. This dissertation focuses on the acts-of-knowing and the underlying socioenvironmental imaginaries of these "water worlds". My empirical study seeks a postphemenological ethnographic approach, and draws theoretical connections between Cornelius Castoriadis and Science \& Technology Studies. Using advocacy research, it was conducted in 34 fieldwork sites, involved 14 unstructured interviews and dozens of conversations with community participants, and drew on numerous documents and visual resources. My analysis shows how:  The Environmental Impact Study (EIS) report of the San Rafael River over-simplifies the knowledge capacities of neighbor communities and environmental groups. The EIS report does not fully take into account knowledge about biophysical dynamics that members of the communities are able to co-create using alternative acts-of-knowing, such as: (i) giving attention to historical perspectives, (ii) embodying practices, and (iii) creating community coalitions in response to perceived knowledge deficits.  Local communities co-create imaginaries of water worlds associated with ways of living and the maintenance of community relations, upon which rivers have significant influence. This notion of imaginaries as a life force of connectivity challenges the underlying (modern) assumptions and treatments of rivers, as expressed in the EIS report. That is, it defies the imaginary of rivers as quantifiable, determinable, divisible, and isolated from the human and non-human communities.  Multispecies encounters in daily situations represent an important element in understanding acts-of-knowing articulated by the local communities in the "water worlds" of this dissertation. Drawing from Cornelius Castoriadis' perspective of living beings, I offer alternative imaginaries of the role of non-human animals in Costa Rica that are more intimate and affective than what I understand as mechanical and passive notions of non-human animals in the multiple spaces that they share together with humans. Overall, this dissertation contributes to a deeper (and politically significant) understanding of acts-of-knowing in a particular conflict over (more than) water. In doing so, it contributes to existing work on sociotechnical and environmental imaginaries in Science \& Technology Studies and political ecology by adopting a postphenomenological perspective, which aims to transcend taken-for-granted assumptions about acts-of-knowing under the sustainable development approach in Costa Rica.}, language = {en} } @techreport{LangPauleitBrascheetal., author = {Lang, Werner and Pauleit, Stephan and Brasche, Julia and Hausladen, Georg and Maderspacher, Johannes and Schelle, Rupert and Z{\"o}lch, Teresa}, title = {Klimaschutz und gr{\"u}ne Infrastruktur in der Stadt - Abschlussbericht}, address = {M{\"u}nchen}, pages = {227}, language = {de} } @incollection{Lippert, author = {Lippert, Ingmar}, title = {Limits to Managing the Environment}, series = {Implementing Environmental and Resource Management}, booktitle = {Implementing Environmental and Resource Management}, editor = {Schmidt, Michael and Onyango, Vincent and Palekhov, Dmitry}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Heidelberg}, isbn = {978-3-540-77568-3}, pages = {209 -- 210}, abstract = {This part investigates some of the limits and contradictions of management of the environment and its resources, through detailed discussions of key dimensions of applied environmental management.

The studies presented here are linked by a common thread which recognises that the historicity of environmental management as a social practice requires us to scrutinise its specificity as a practical, social, cultural as well as political achievement. The ascension of science and modernity gave rise to a qualitative change in cultural conceptualisations of the human-nature relationship: nature became an object to be 'managed' by so-called experts. By now, however, environmental management has come under critique in that what it proposes as solutions may simultaneously comprise the causes of environmental problems. First, the means used by environmental management can be identified as instances of modernism, industrialism as well as capitalism. Second, scholars of environmental problems criticise the 'instruments' of environmental 'management' for reproducing the problems, rather than solving them.

How is the work that emerges from these different principles ultimately constituted and perceived as a definable entity and how is this important for the philosophy of technology? In contrast to composition, combining is presented as a strategy to give more importance to the processual, to the various spatial and temporal couplings and decoupling of the components of a work, to their relationship to their surroundings and also to the relatedness of the observer to the work. Gardenworks can stand for principles of combination as well as principles of composition. They are nature-culture hybrid forms, examples are discussed referring to 17th and 18th-century pleasure gardens. The emphasis on the principle of combination in the case of the English landscape garden ultimately produced a model for a sociotechnical handling with nature-culture constellations based on a policy of democratic principles.

Mit der technisierten Umwelt sind in meiner Forschung Beziehungsgef{\"u}ge von Natur, Technik und Mensch gemeint. Solche Beziehungsgef{\"u}ge bieten sich an als produktiver Denk- und Aktionsraum, in dem Fragen nach der Entstehung von Entit{\"a}ten aus Beziehungen und von Beziehungen aus Entit{\"a}ten verfolgt werden. Sind die Objekte einfach da und gehen Relationen ein oder sind die Relationen vorrangig? Wie ist ein Smartphone oder eine Zuchtpflanze dann zu beschreiben, wie die Konstituierung, Durchdringung und Gestaltung des Untersuchungs-gegenstands zu verstehen?

Der Umgang mit der Verschr{\"a}nkung von Nat{\"u}rlichem und Artifiziellem, von Handwerk, Technik und Wissenschaft ist der g{\"a}rtnerischen Praxis inh{\"a}rent und dies schon seit Jahrhunderten. Der Homo hortensis ist ein genuin technowissenschaftlicher Mensch, dem der Garten ein technologisches Produkt von handwerklich und wissenschaftlich ko-produziertem Wissen ist, das immer wieder neu in der Auseinandersetzung mit der vom Garten hervorgebrachten Ordnung ausgehandelt wird.
