Popis: |
It is not customary that books reviewed in an academic STS journalhave been translated into 17 languages only one year after publication.Shoshana Zuboff’s The Age of Surveillance Capitalism. The Fight for aHuman Future at the New Frontier of Power, published in 2019 by ProfileBooks, is not a customary book. Zuboff’s story is both personal –each chapter begins with an excerpt of W.H. Auden’s poetry – and drawson her work as a scholar of social psychology, but the book is not a scientificpublication. For that reason, we approach the book as a quasischolarlywork and as an object-phenomenon that exists within thebroader field of contemporary computing and those concerning science,technology and society. This makes it worth reading for STS scholars forreasons we will elaborate upon shortly. |
