Produktinformationen zu „The Network Society / Key Concepts (PDF)“
In The Network Society, Darin Barney provides a compelling
examination of the social, political and economic implications of
network technologies and their application across a wide range of
practices and institutions.
Are we in the midst of a digital revolution? Have new
information and communication technologies given birth to a new
form of society, or do they reinforce and extend existing patterns
and relationships? This book provides a clear and engaging
discussion of these and other questions. Using a sophisticated
model of the relationship between technology and society, Barney
investigates both what has changed, and what has remained the same,
in the age of the Internet.
Among the issues discussed are debates concerning the emergence
of a 'knowledge economy'; digital restructuring of employment and
work; globalization and the status of the nation-state; the
prospects of digital democracy; the digital divide; new social
movements; and culture, community and identity in the age of new
media.
This book provides an accessible resource for a thoughtful
engagement with life in the network society. It will be essential
reading for students in sociology and media and communication
studies. This will be a valuable textbook for undergraduate
students of sociology and media and communication studies.
