How can one forget culture and heritage?
One can forget culture and heritage by not actively engaging with it, by being disconnected from one's roots and community, and by prioritizing other aspects of life over preserving and celebrating one's cultural identity. This can happen through assimilation into a different culture, lack of exposure to one's own cultural traditions and practices, and a lack of interest in learning about one's heritage. Additionally, societal pressures and discrimination can also contribute to the erasure of one's culture and heritage.

What is a value judgment in relation to history?
A value judgment in relation to history is when an individual or group evaluates a historical event, person, or concept based on their own beliefs, morals, or values. It involves making subjective assessments about the significance, morality, or impact of past events. Value judgments can influence how history is interpreted, remembered, and taught, as they can shape the narrative and understanding of the past. It is important for historians to be aware of their own biases and values when making interpretations to ensure a more objective and balanced view of history.

How do I know which value is the x-value and which value is the y-value?
In a coordinate pair (x, y), the x-value represents the horizontal position on the graph, while the y-value represents the vertical position. The x-value comes first in the pair and is always written before the y-value. When plotting a point on a graph, the x-value tells you how far to move horizontally, and the y-value tells you how far to move vertically.

What is the value judgment on the history of the Stasi?
The value judgment on the history of the Stasi, the former East German secret police, is overwhelmingly negative. The Stasi is widely condemned for its extensive surveillance, repression, and human rights abuses during its existence from 1950 to 1990. The organization's tactics, including spying on citizens, infiltrating society, and using informants, are seen as a gross violation of individual freedoms and privacy. The Stasi's legacy is one of fear, distrust, and trauma for many who lived under its rule, and its history serves as a reminder of the dangers of unchecked state power and the importance of protecting civil liberties.

The Venice Arsenal : Between History, Heritage, and Re-use
This book reviews four decades of debate about restoring an industrial heritage site of inestimable value – the Venice Arsenal.Focusing on the challenges of economic, financial and institutional feasibility, it reveals how failing to address these aspects has undermined potential solutions from both technicians and heritage professionals. With a deep connection to the city over centuries, the Arsenal was the very basis of La Serenissima’s sea power, enabling its economic expansion.Later, it maintained a vital military function through shipbuilding until World War II.But the slow process of abandonment of the traditional site’s uses and spaces continues to pose questions regarding its preservation and re-use.Drawing on original research from urban planners, architects and historians, the book provides a critical investigation into the organizational and managerial challenges of this unique site, and crucially, why so little has been achieved compared with potential opportunities. Featuring numerous color photographs and exploring the particular challenges of restoration and re-use facing the Venice Arsenal, this insightful evaluation of the history of this site provides a uniquely informative case for the discipline of industrial heritage.

Value
'Value' seems like an elusive and abstract concept.Nonetheless, notions of value underpin how we understand our lives, from discussions about the economic contribution of different kinds of work and productive activity, to the prices we pay for the things we consume.So what is value, and where does it come from? In this new book, Frederick Harry Pitts charts the past, present and future of value within and beyond capitalist society, critically engaging with key concepts from classical and neoclassical political economy.Interrogating the processes and practices that attribute value to objects and activities, he considers debates over whether value lies within commodities or in their exchange, the politics of different theories of value, and how we measure value in a knowledge-based economy. This accessible and intriguing introduction to the complexities of value in modern society will be essential reading for any student or scholar working in political economy, economics, economic sociology or management.

Spreadable Media : Creating Value and Meaning in a Networked Culture
How sharing, linking, and liking have transformed the media and marketing industries Spreadable Media is a rare inside look at today’s ever-changing media landscape.The days of corporate control over media content and its distribution have been replaced by the age of what the digital media industries have called “user-generated content.” Spreadable Media maps these fundamental changes, and gives readers a comprehensive look into the rise of participatory culture, from internet memes to presidential tweets.The authors challenge our notions of what goes “viral” and how by examining factors such as the nature of audience engagement and the environment of participation, and by contrasting the concepts of “stickiness”—aggregating attention in centralized places—with “spreadability”—dispersing content widely through both formal and informal networks.The former has often been the measure of media success in the online world, but the latter describes the actual ways content travels through social media.The book explores the internal tensions businesses face as they adapt to this new, spreadable, communication reality and argues for the need to shift from “hearing” to “listening” in corporate culture.Now with a new afterword addressing changes in the media industry, audience participation, and political reporting, and drawing on modern examples from online activism campaigns, film, music, television, advertising, and social media—from both the US and around the world—the authors illustrate the contours of our current media environment.For all of us who actively create and share content, Spreadable Media provides a clear understanding of how people are spreading ideas and the implications these activities have for business, politics, and everyday life, both on- and offline.

What is the origin and history of Venice?
Venice was founded in the 5th century AD by refugees fleeing the invasion of northern Italy by Germanic tribes. These refugees settled in the marshy lagoon of the Adriatic Sea and built a network of canals and islands that would become the city of Venice. Over the centuries, Venice grew into a powerful maritime republic, dominating trade in the Mediterranean and becoming a center of art, culture, and wealth. The city's unique location and system of government allowed it to flourish for centuries, until it eventually fell under the control of the Austrian Empire in the 18th century. Today, Venice is known for its beautiful architecture, art, and canals, and remains a popular tourist destination.

What is the difference between future value, present value, and net present value?
Future value is the value of an investment at a specific date in the future, taking into account the interest or return it will earn over time. Present value, on the other hand, is the current value of a future sum of money, taking into account the time value of money and discounting it back to its current value. Net present value is the difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a specific time period, used to determine the profitability of an investment or project. In summary, future value looks at the value of an investment in the future, present value looks at the current value of future cash flows, and net present value compares the present value of cash inflows and outflows to determine the profitability of an investment.

How do value judgments and factual judgments differ in a history exam?
In a history exam, value judgments are subjective assessments of the significance or moral implications of historical events, while factual judgments are objective assessments of the accuracy and truthfulness of historical information. Value judgments may involve evaluating the impact of historical events on society or determining the significance of certain figures or movements. Factual judgments, on the other hand, involve assessing the accuracy of dates, events, and historical accounts based on evidence and sources. In a history exam, students are expected to demonstrate their ability to make both value judgments and factual judgments in their responses.
