Socialist Register Vol. 57: "Beyond Digital Capitalism. New Ways of Living"
Segnalo l'ultimo numero della rivista "Socialist Register", intitolato: "Beyond Digital Capitalism. New Ways of Living": https://socialistregister.com/index.php/srv/issue/view/2331 As digital technology became integral to the capitalist market dystopia of the first decades of the 21st century, it not only refashioned our ways of communicating but of working and consuming, indeed ways of living. The Covid-19 pandemic revealed not only the lack of investment, planning and preparation that underlay the scandalous slowness of the responses by states around the world, but also grotesque class and racial inequalities as it coursed its way through the population and the owners of high-tech corporations were enriched by tens of billions of dollars. Rejecting both technological determinism and facile ‘cyber-utopian’ thinking, the 57th annual volume of the Socialist Register addresses how to imagine, struggle for, and plan for, new democratic socialist ways of living after the pandemic. N.B. A parte la prefazione (scritta da Leo Panitch, purtroppo mancato pochi giorni fa), il resto è dietro paywall. jc
P.S. Per onorare la morte di Leo Panitch, i suoi articoli per "Socialist Register" sono liberamente scaricabili (non ho capito se per sempre o solo per qualche giorno): https://socialistregister.com/index.php/srv/announcement/view/806 jc On 30/12/20 18:13, J.C. DE MARTIN wrote:
