Journal of Science, Humanities and Arts (JOSHA)

Technology and ideology are jointly reshaping the foundations of democratic governance: this Spotlight's five curated reads trace how. From the erosion of civic participation through AI-driven power concentration and the unfulfilled promise of technological efficiency, to the dismantling of constitutional checks through unchecked executive authority, the specter of Orwellian geopolitical realignment between major powers, and the fracturing of coalition politics in Germany.

Journal of Science, Humanities and Arts (JOSHA)

This Spotlight examines how artificial intelligence is reshaping the boundaries of language, artistic creation, and human identity. From hidden communicative signals transmitted between AI systems beyond human perception, to the emergence of the first fully AI-generated actor and the ensuing legal battles over authorship and likeness, the collection interrogates what it means to create, perform, and express in an age of machine intelligence.

Rohita Biswas, Cinthya Souza Simas, Sara Tóth Martínez, María Belén Moyano, Felicitas Holzer, Gerhard Steinmann, Roland Mertelsmann

Journal of Science, Humanities and Arts (JOSHA)

This Spotlight examines how state power increasingly shapes digital security, public health, journalism, scientific publishing, and global economic strategy. The contributions reveal a shared tension between state control and institutional independence, showing that security, governance, and knowledge production are now deeply entangled. In doing so, this collection reflects JOSHA’s editorial curation of timely debates at the intersection of politics, science, and public trust.
