The unitary perspective is based on the assumption that the organization is an integrated group of people with single authority/ loyalty structure and a set of common values, interests and objectives shared by all members of the organization.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

3. CONFLICT THEORY
• Begins with Marx and his analysis of
history
• Thesis/antithesis = struggle (conflict)
• Synthesis = a new order is produced
because of the struggle between the
classes
• All of history can be understood in this way
• Three stages of history: feudalism,
capitalism & socialism (it was an inevitable
destination!)
4. Always a struggle
• The materialist view of history = the most
important determinant of social life is the
work people are doing, especially work
that results in provision of the basic
necessities of life, food, clothing and
shelter.
• Marx thought that the way the work is
socially organized and the technology
used in production will have a strong
impact on every other aspect of society.
5. Power=ownership
• He maintained that everything of value in
society results from human labour.
Thus, Marx saw working men and women as
engaged in making society, in creating the
conditions for their own existence.
• Every part of human history and existence
must be understood through the lens of
social/economic theory
• All relationships are based on
conflict/struggle
6. Only 1 institution: private
property
• The central institution of capitalist society
is private property, the system by
which capital (that is, money, machines,
tools, factories, and other material objects
used in production) is controlled by a small
minority of the population. This leads to
two opposed classes, the owners of
capital (called the bourgeoisie) and the
workers (called the proletariat), whose
only property is their own labour time,
which they have to sell to the capitalists.
7. • Economic exploitation leads directly to
political oppression, as owners make use
of their economic power to gain control of
the state and turn it into a servant of
bourgeois economic interests. Police
power, for instance, is used to enforce
property rights and guarantee unfair
contracts between capitalist and worker.
9. The Marriage Scam
• 1884
• Built on Marx’s ideas
• Monogamy is an invention to control
sexual reproduction
• Marriage is a social construct to guarantee
private property to biological children
• Conclusion: marriage is exploitation of
women
10. Oppression is everywhere!
• The economic structure of society moulds
the superstructure, including ideas (e.g.,
morality, ideologies, art, and literature) and
the social institutions that support the
class structure of society (e.g., the state,
the educational system, the family, and
religious institutions).
• What do you think? Is school oppressive?
11. Conflict theory & private schools
• Because the dominant or ruling
class (the bourgeoisie) controls the social
relations of production, the
dominant ideology in capitalist society is
that of the ruling class.
• Ideology and social institutions, in turn,
serve to reproduce and perpetuate the
economic class structure.
• Does private school education perpetuate
the class system? What do you think?
12. Functionalist theory / Durkheim
• First theory in
sociology
• Two fundamentals:
• 1- application of
scientific method
(sociologists must be
objective & without
bias)
• 2- institutions fulfill
basic human needs
and all groups play a
role in achieving
equilibrium
13. Balance, equilibrium, stability
• Key words for functionalism
• Think of any system that must co-ordinate
its parts for survival (body & organs)
• A social system with needs that must be
met
• When change in one group happens, other
groups must adjust, adapt, respond...to
accommodate for the change, finding the
equilibrium again
• HOMOEOSTASIS IS THE KEY WORD
14. A society is
• A system of inter-related “parts”
• A change in one affects the others
• Most changes are the result of “evolution”
or natural progression of ideas and social
change
• Durkheim was influenced by Darwin`s
work
• Functionalism focuses on the individual
and how social forces influence him
(Macro perspective)
15. The social self
• Functionalism understands the individual
to be a product of social forces in the
environment
• Almost puppet-like (has been the criticism)
• The individual`s place in the social
structure will determine their actions
• Internalized social expectations and act
accordingly in order to satisfy the needs of
the group
• Social control may be explicit or implicit
16. • Functionalist want to PREDICT behaviour
• This explains the emphasis on the
scientific method
• Shared values (solidarity) is key to group
cohesiveness
• Example: laws, rules, constitutions are an
explicit expression of supreme values
(justice, freedom) that are held in common
by a group/society
17. • Functionalism is a macro approach to
studying society; it defines society as
a system of interrelated parts.
• A good metaphor is the body with its
interrelated organs that all work together
to produce the state of health of the
person. It has built in mechanisms that
maintain stasis or
balance. (Sweating, shivering, etc.)
18. • In society, when things happen to provoke
change or throw it off kilter, other
mechanisms come into play to help bring
back to a balance. Sometimes this new
balance is slow change, in the case of
people`s values changing faster than the
laws or the other way around. What
examples can you think of to prove this
theory?
