¿Quién no ha sentido, al menos una vez en la vida, el deseo de alejarse del mundo? ¿Quién no ha soñado con dejarlo todo y desaparecer? La tentación de la huida, el motivo de la fuga mundi, es recurrente en nuestra cultura porque permanece vivo a lo largo de la historia, y siempre provoca una mezcla de fascinación, nostalgia y callado remordimiento. Para seguir su rastro, de la huida al desierto predicada en el siglo IV por el eremitismo cristiano al exaltado elogio de la evasión entonado por los hippies de la década de 1960, el sociólogo Rémy Oudghiri se ha deshecho de las herramientas habituales de su oficio.

Wir haben es verlernt, mit den Sterbenden zu trauern. Mehr noch: Wir lassen sie in ihrer letzten Zeit oft allein. Aber warum verdrängen wir das Abschiednehmen so sehr? Warum ist Trauer ein Unzustand, den es möglichst schnell zu überwinden gilt? Sterbebegleiterin Sabrina Görlitz schreibt klug, liebevoll und schonungslos über die Gefühle am Ende eines Lebens. Sie erzählt von ihrem eigenen Schmerz, als sie ihren Vater in den Tod begleitete, und von den bewegenden Momenten mit Sterbenden, deren Lebenserinnerungen sie als Geschichtenpflegerin auf der Palliativstation aufschrieb.

Since the internet's earliest days, people have died and mourned online. In quiet corners of past iterations of the web, the dead linger. But attempts at preserving the data of the dead are often ill-fated, for websites and devices decay and die, just as people do. Death disrupts technologists' plans for platforms. It reveals how digital production is always collaborative, undermining the entrepreneurial platform economy and highlighting the flaws of techno-solutionism.
