Description

Explore the profound impact of the digital revolution on our social and political structures with Digital Detachment: How Computer Culture Undermines Democracy. Published by Routledge, this work examines how the rapid shift toward a digital-first world changes the way we live and govern. The text analyzes how digital growth increases the power of elites who control and interpret data, often at the expense of democratic processes. It looks at the economic and political shifts driven by market liberalism and how these systems often ignore environmental limits. By studying the loss of face-to-face knowledge and the changing nature of language, readers gain a better understanding of the cultural shifts happening in real time. This book provides a deep look at how the myth of progress can lead to the loss of important cultural traditions and the cultural commons. It is a necessary read for those interested in how technology affects our shared knowledge and the sustainability of our global society.
