Cyber-proletariat : global labour in the digital vortex
Dyer-Witheford, Nick, author
London : Pluto Press, 2015
This book examines how technology facilitates growing polarization between wealthy elites and precarious workers. Nick Dyer-Witheford reveals the class domination behind everything from expanding online surveillance to intensifying robotisation. At the same time, he explores the possibilities that information technology offers within radical movements, recasting contemporary struggles in the blue glow of the computer screen. -- cover
