Product Description

The English-language reader provides insight into the highly organized work and interaction of digital media and capital at various levels of actors (such as individuals or families in home isolation, scientists developing vaccines, government officials tracking the spread of the virus, etc.) as the global pandemic sweeps across countries. In the process of life, there is an unprecedented reliance on network technology, and the issue of personal privacy and commercial abuse of data has attracted the attention of the international community. However, around the relationship between government and citizens; the control of dominant commercialized digital platforms; the vulnerability of vulnerable groups and the availability of digital resources; cross-cutting social inequality; and the ubiquitous confrontations surrounding the impact of digital technology on peoples leisure, learning, and work. All in all, the confrontation of the world connected by digital media is imprinted in the context of the confluence of pandemic and environmental crisis, and the multiple social tensions and conflicts reappearing in the meantime reflect the fundamental restructuring of the relationship between the state and the digital market, and seriously constrain the daily life of the people.
