Archiving Social Media in an Age of APIcalypse

Archiving Social Media in an Age of APIcalypse

Access to API is strategic for archiving and research. The recent European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA) might be a decisive step forwards. But a recent report showed that the platforms’ policies set up to conform to the DSA are very diverse. And the efficiency of those APIs for researchers are yet to be evaluated. In other words, the DSA does not put an end to the APIcalypse: it is geographically limited, and the notion of “systemic risk” that is in the DSA remains ambiguous and this ambiguity allows those firms to restrict researchers’ access to their data.

Put it Back! Archived Memes in Context

Put it Back! Archived Memes in Context

Memes constitute a significant aspect of online digital cultures (see Shifman, 2014; Milner, 2018; Denisova, 2016). Their role in reactions to events like the Ukrainian war highlights their broad influence. However, preserving memes, especially in their original context, proves challenging (Pailler & Schafer, 2022).

DAS TELEFON AUS DER PERSPEKTIVE SOZIOTECHNISCHER DYSFUNKTIONEN. WARTUNGS- UND REPARATURPRAXIS AM BEISPIEL DER P&T LUXEMBOURG

Diese Dissertation untersucht die historische Entwicklung und Bedeutung von Reparatur- und Wartungspraktiken innerhalb des luxemburgischen Telefonnetzwerks. Durch den Fokus auf soziotechnische Systeme (STS) und „broken-world thinking“ bietet die Arbeit einen neuen Blick auf die oft übersehenen Aspekte der Technikgeschichte. Die Studie untersucht einen Zeit-raum von mehr als hundert Jahren (1885–1992) und zielt darauf ab, Dysfunktionen als alltägli-che und essentielle Bestandteile technischer Systeme zu verstehen.

VH:D_igital Public Lecture 1: „Wo stehen wir eigentlich? Digitale Geschichtswissenschaft und wie wir dahinkommen“ 18. April 2024, Frankfurt am Main sowie hybrid Von überall ist der Ruf nach (mehr) Digitalität und digitalen Kompetenzen in Forschung und Lehre zu hören. Für die einen sind es die Unworte der letzten Jahre, für andere sind es Versprechen von neuen Erkenntnismöglichkeiten. Aber: Wo stehen wir als Geschichtswissenschaft eigentlich wirklich? Erfinden wir das digitale Rad oder laufen wir ihm gerade hinterher?

Networks of Confessional Affiliation: Religious Choice and the Schism of Utrecht

This article demonstrates our methodology for studying the process of intra-Catholic confessional affiliation during the schism that occurred in the Catholic Church in the eighteenth-century Dutch Republic. The schism resulted in the remarkable fact that the Republic, a Protestant state, became home to two competing Catholic Churches, the Roman Catholic Church and the Roomsch-Katholieke Kerk der Oud-Bisschoppelijke Cleresie (​​OBC Church).

Framing settlement systems as spatial adaptive systems

Framing settlement systems as spatial adaptive systems

Theoretical developments are needed to interpret the increasing amount of large-scale spatial data about past settlements. So far, settlement patterns have mostly been considered as passive imprints of past human activities and most theories are limited to ecological processes. Locational and spatial interactions have scarcely been included as long-term driving forces of settlement systems but hold promise to explain large-scale patterns.
