Dignity in a digital age : making tech work for all of us / by Khanna, Ro,author.(CARDINAL)837065;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Foreword / by Amartya Sen -- Democratizing the digital revolution -- Part I: Twenty-first-century economy -- Building community -- Racial and gender equity -- Empowering workers -- Progressive capitalism -- Part II: Twenty-first-century citizenship -- Internet Bill of Rights -- Deliberation online -- Science in democracy -- Decentralizing foreign policy -- Democratic patriotism."Rep Ro Khanna offers a revolutionary roadmap to facing America's digital divide. In Khanna's vision, "just as people can move to technology, technology can move to people. People need not be compelled to move from one place to another to reap the benefits offered by technological progress" (from the foreword by Amartya Sen, Nobel Laureate in Economics)"--In the digital age, unequal access to technology and the revenue it creates is one of the most pressing issues facing the United States: students without computers, rural workers with spotty WiFi, and plenty of workers without the luxury to work from home. Khanna imagines how the digital economy can create opportunities for people all across the country without uprooting them. He offers a vision for democratizing digital innovation to build economically vibrant and inclusive communities. Instead of being subject to tech's reshaping of our economy, we must channel those powerful forces toward creating a more healthy, equal, and democratic society. - adapted from jacket

Brain magnet : Research Triangle Park and the idea of the idea economy / by Cummings, Alex Sayf,author.(CARDINAL)855332;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Beginning in the 1950s, a group of academics, businesspeople, and politicians set out on an ambitious project to remake North Carolina's low-wage economy. They pitched the universities of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill as the kernel of a tech hub, Research Triangle Park, which would lure a new class of highly educated workers. In the process, they created a blueprint for what would become known as the knowledge economy: a future built on intellectual labor and the production of intellectual property. Alex Sayf Cummings reveals the significance of Research Triangle Park to the emergence of the high-tech economy in a postindustrial United States. She analyzes the use of ideas of culture and creativity to fuel economic development, how workers experienced life in the Triangle, and the role of the federal government in bringing the modern technology industry into being. As Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill were transformed by high-tech development, the old South gave way to a distinctly new one, which welded the intellectual power of universities to a vision of the suburban good life. Cummings pinpoints how the story of the Research Triangle sheds new light on the origins of today's urban landscape, in which innovation, as exemplified by the tech industry, is lauded as the engine of economic growth against a backdrop of gentrification and inequality. Placing the knowledge economy in a broader cultural and intellectual context, Brain Magnet offers vital insight into how tech-driven development occurs and the people and places left in its wake"--

Folklife along the Big South Fork of the Cumberland River / by Howell, Benita J.,author.(CARDINAL)266169; Stonich, Susan,contributor.; Howell, Benita J.Survey of folklife along the Big South Fork of the Cumberland River.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 276-298) and index."Folklife along the Big South Fork of the Cumberland River records the history, lore, and lifeways of people who once occupied the land that became the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area. The National Park Service sponsored the research in 1979, just as former residents were being displaced from their homes, as a baseline survey for cultural heritage interpretation in the newly established recreation area."The original National Park Service technical report that forms the basis for this work also serves as a pioneering example of applied ethnography in the National Park System. This kind of research has become a recognized tool for national park planning and cultural resource interpretation over the past two decades. In a new introduction and postscript, Benita J. Howell places her work in historical context and updates the reader on the more recent development of the area.""Visitors to the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area will find this a useful introduction to the area's rich history and culture, while genealogists and descendants of the inhabitants will discover a wealth of information about the region's historic settlements. Social scientists will recover valuable insights into the cultural dimensions of environmental impact assessment along with a counter to conventional wisdom that tends to explain Appalachian culture in terms of either psychocultural or environmental determinism."--Jacket.Through oral history interviews and historical records, ethnographic study of household economic strategies, and documentation of music, lore, old-time occupational skills, and handcraft traditions, this book recounts what life was like in the Big South Fork during the first half of the twentieth century, when the region's agrarian economy was transformed by the timber and coal industries. This reconstruction of past lifeways provides the reader with a picture of this once-bustling area as it was prior to the Great Depression of the 1930s, and of the people who held fast to their customs as the area's growth and industry declined."
