SUMMARY:Shoshana Zuboff: Surveillance Capitalism and Democracy
DESCRIPTION:The collection and analysis of data is changing the way economi
 es operate. Are these changes so fundamental that they can be said to have
  led to the emergence of a new form of capitalism – surveillance capital
 ism? If people’s behaviour is made increasingly transparent\, do we beco
 me a society in which trust is no longer necessary? Are individuals a mere
  appendage to the digital machine\, objects of new mechanisms which reward
  and punish according to the determinations of private capital? How is soc
 ial cohesion affected when people become dispensable as a labour force\, w
 hile their data continues to provide function as a source of value in lucr
 ative new markets that trade in predictions of human behaviour? How should
  we understand the new quality of power that arises from these unprecedent
 ed conditions? What kind of society does it aim to create? And what ramifi
 cations will these developments have for the principles of liberal democra
 cy? Will privacy law and anti-trust law be enough? How can we tame what we
  do not yet understand?Shoshana Zuboff is a social scientist and author of
  three books\, each of which has been recognised as the definitive signal 
 of a new epoch in technological society. Her latest book\, The Age of Surv
 eillance Capitalism reveals a world in which technology users are no longe
 r customers but the raw material for an entirely new economic system. Zubo
 ff is the Charles Edward Wilson Professor Emerita at Harvard Business Scho
 ol and was a Faculty Associate at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet an
 d Society at Harvard Law School from 2014 until 2016.
