Cultural historians from the arts and sciences debate the history of information exchange in the era of surveillance capitalism
In this volume, leading scholars in the arts and sciences discuss how information has been transmitted throughout history. It addresses the multiple challenges of the age, particularly with regard to our personal data. Amid growing tension between a “cognitive elite” and those excluded from public discourse and decision-making, editors Kurt Almqvist and Mattias Hessrus ask: will our information society turn out to be an era of enlightenment or are we entering a new dark age for knowledge?
