She examines the use of housing to alter gender relations, and the ways in which domestic space was differentially experienced by men and women. Much of Attwood's material comes from Soviet magazines and journals, which enables her to demonstrate how official ideas on housing and daily life changed during the course of the

In unserer hochtechnisierten Welt verschwimmen die Grenzen zwischen Mensch und Maschine in zahlreichen Bereichen der Wissenschaft, der Arbeit und des Alltagslebens immer mehr. Diese Verflechtungen beeinflussen unser tägliches Leben und stellen Möglichkeiten, aber auch Einschränkungen, Chancen und Herausforderungen dar. Die Beiträge des Bandes greifen diese Themen auf, indem sie eine stark interdisziplinäre Perspektive einnehmen. Wie wirken sich Digitalisierung und Künstliche Intelligenz in der Lebens- und Arbeitswelt auf die Geschlechterverhältnisse aus? Wie kann Intersektionalität in einer zunehmend international vernetzten Welt neu verstanden werden? In numerous fields of science, work, and everyday life, humans and machines have been increasingly entangled, developing an ever-growing toolbox of interactions. These entanglements affect our daily lives and pose possibilities as well as restrictions, chances as well as challenges. The contributions of this volume tackle related issues by adopting a highly interdisciplinary perspective. How do digitalization and artificial intelligence affect gender relations? How can intersectionality be newly understood in an increasingly internationally networked world? This volume is a collection of contributions deriving from the "Interdisciplinary Conference on the Relations of Humans, Machines and Gender" which took place in Braunschweig (October 16-19, 2019). It also includes the keynotes given by Cecile Crutzen, Galit Wellner and Helen Verran.
