Urban spaces became battlefields, signifiers have been invaded, new
structures have been established: Netculture replaced counterculture in
most parts and also focused on the everchanging environments of the modern
city. Important questions have been brought up to date and reasked, taking
current positions and discourses into account. The major question still
remains, namely how to create culturally based resistance under the
influence of capitalistic pressure and conservative politics. This
collection of essays and contributions attempts to address this question
and its implications for different scientific and artistic fields.
