Der Prophet soll ja angeblich im eigenen Land wenig Gehör erhalten, vielleicht stieß ich also deswegen erst durch eine Kritik in Le Monde anlässlich seiner Übersetzung ins Deutsche Hartmut Rosa on acceleration - the change in the time structures in the modern . My understanding or knowledge of great thinkers and philosophers can miss to say the least depth. Apart from some (literary to boot) Sartre texts, I have actually been only politics (Hobbes, Montesquieu, Publius) and economists (Keynes, Krugman) read. Hartmut Rosa was so in this respect, a challenge for me. And even if I was going out, of course, assumes that the book would please me, otherwise I would not even ordered, I never thought that I would perceive it as such an enrichment.
Rosa presented in his work a complex theoretical explanation, which shows why we seem to trickle down in the late-or post-modern living by the time his hands. This widespread perception is indeed a paradox, as such, since the time "is eliminated in almost all everyday practices by the increasingly sophisticated use of modern technology and organizational planning in ever larger quantities, and thus actually in abundance would have to be present. The reason for this paradox is to be sought, according to Rosa in the continuous change in acceleration, which in turn arises from the technical change, the acceleration of social change and the pace of life.
Technical acceleration appears as the most Easy to understand knowledge. Faster transport, whether train, aircraft or e-mail allow faster communication and travel forms. Now we could use this time saving is to idleness, but in fact we spend more time than ever before on the road or communicating. Write more letters and emails as our parents would more often than this.
the rapidly evolving social transformation in turn results in constant change of partners (serial monogamy, keyword: her partner ) low, the profession (well, the job sector) and as the party affiliation. While our parents (usually) have time chose a party of their lives and defined in this way, a profession, indeed, may an employer who had rapid social change for us is not very preventable yes he is hardly perceived as such, but simply accepted as reality.
Finally, the acceleration of the pace of life measured by the "increase in the number of episodes per unit time experience." Whether I order a pizza, a power nap enjoy or watch TV my emails, answer the allowed (late) modern to me - so it forces me to other connection loss or Contacts exclusion risk - a higher workload to meet in daily tasks.
reinforce these three points On the one hand against each other - that is, an acceleration in the increase is sufficient to increase the number of cycles of all three - on the other hand, they are based on three exogenous, independent of each other forces. Thus, the technical acceleration based on the capitalist order and the fact inherent change in the production in order to meet demand for value-added production. The acceleration of social change depends in turn together with the (post-) modern gap between world and life.
The forthcoming apocalypse of Judgement Day as part of the Christian faith was universal time, and life can be (almost) appear equal, the erosion of faith in Western (European) industrialized nations brought with it the need for all the wishes and desires into the personal life of each squeeze.
conclude, there are the cultural justification, one structural, which affects exogenous to increasing the pace of life. In a world in which everything is always possible causes the postponement of an activity only lead to greater range of decision in the future. Specifically, there is less and less time-bound framework and structures. I can not answer emails at midnight my work, writing on the work this blog entry, go late night shopping, watch football every night and through the Internet or Tivogeräten my favorite shows any time, day or night . Look Each of these activities is now subject but on the other. If I missed the beginning of my football game and he deferred to watch technological assistance, I can not make it more before going to sleep nor to iron as originally planned, etc, etc. The increasing complexities of the temporary nature are continued to infinity.
The combination of the interaction and acceleration of exogenous factors lead to a continuously higher level of acceleration of the above-named three aspects and therefore as to an ever faster pace of change such.
A wonderful, albeit sobering book. The extent to which I myself am caught in this cycle? Will I make it at least from time to escape him? Can I do this because without to renounce completely and in the country to grow tomatoes? If the state or society means to combat this trend in his hand? If he / she even mean?
Finally as a small personal highlight of the book an excursion to the modern entertainment industry in general and television in particular, which Rosa takes apart in a way, as I had never seen before.
It is from these Erlebnis-/Erinnerungsstrukturen to the contextualization. is means that a trip to the beach and the spent hotel bar certainly fit more in the short-short structure, while a good film fit into a framework of information quite lasting memories can leave and in the short-long section moving up (say, before a basketball movie seen for many years with a few friends in an empty cinema and preserve the relevant sociological history of the failure of U.S. society to many black American youths from crime and drug use: Soul in the Hole).
The shocking but revealing finding that Rosa take to this is that most people describe the short-long activities in the polls as the most desirable, but they undergo mainly in short-short activities. Rosa believes that structural aspects of this are the main reason, perhaps he is right, but I think that free choice is often also plays a role and individuals here may well set their own priorities.
To make a really worthwhile book that will force you about his own (and general everyday) life thoughts and - hopefully - at least some of them also implement.

Since awarding the social structure due to high conversion rates and short-term instability and the entertainment industry a lot of literally "attractive" adventure opportunities, opened the "Instant gratification" to provide effective input-output relation to be for those activities that are considered on an abstract level of cognitive-valuable and satisfying, but large or long periods of time and energy investments require time decreasing resources expended.He developed here a fascinating model of short-short, long short, long and short-long-long Erlebnis-/Erinnerungsstrukturen. While an hour spent in the waiting room appears, it is in retrospect hardly any (long-short). A holiday trip is entertaining while it lasts, but writes (ok, depending on the type of travel) in detail in the memory. A crisis experience (eg a car accident) only takes a few seconds, but seems to take forever and this will remain so in the memory. Finally, an exciting thriller on television passes quickly, as a highlight of the following year, but in retrospect, hardly the time to reflect on who you used to it (such as the scene of the penultimate week was that again?).
