Förlagets beskrivning
Informed by the latest theoretical developments in studies of the social impacts of digital technology, Smart Tech Society provides an empirically grounded and conceptually informed analysis of the impacts and paradoxes of smart technology. While making life more convenient, smart tech has also been associated with a loss of privacy and control over decision-making autonomy. Mark Whitehead and William Collier provides a critical analysis of the lived experience of smart technology, presenting stories of varied social engagements with digital platforms and devices. Chapters explore the myriad everyday contexts in and through which smart tech insinuates itself within everyday life, the benefits it brings, and the processes through which it is being resisted. Detailed case studies explore the impacts of smart technology across a broad range of fields including personal health, work, social life, urban management, and politics. Presenting new empirical evidence and analytical perspectives on the relationships between humans and smart tech, this book will be of interest to academics and students in the fields of sociology, political science, human geography, and technology studies
