Inhaltsangabe

While industrial modernity saw society as a machinery to be designed according to detailed blueprints, digital modernity views society as organic and alive, to be herded and nudged through digital infrastructures, AI, and algorithms.This book explores the history, meaning and far-reaching consequences of this epistemological shift.
