Digital Degrowth : Technology in the Age of Survival Paperback / softback
by Michael Kwet
Paperback / softback
Description
The world is racing toward an irreversible ecological catastrophe.
Environmental science makes clear that humans must reduce total material resource use, requiring a radical redistribution of wealth within and between countries.
Yet little attention has been paid to how the digital economy fits into this equation. Michael Kwet, a leading expert on digital colonialism, presents a new framework for the digital society.
Merging the science of degrowth with a global analysis of the high-tech economy, he argues that digital capitalism and colonialism must be abolished quickly. In Digital Degrowth, Kwet maps out a path to a people's tech future.
He calls for direct action against Silicon Valley, US imperialism and power elites everywhere in order to realise a radically egalitarian digital society that fosters equality in harmony with nature.
