Dear colleagues,
I would like to share a recent article I have published where I develop a social theory of the interaction between analogue and digital humanity. My argument builds on illustrations from the alleged use of digital doubles of voters by Cambridge Analytica in the 2016 US presidential elections. I provide a sympathetic revision of Shoshana Zuboff’s formulation of surveillance capitalism through an adaptation of Guy Debord’s classic theory of the spectacle to social media and algorithmic life.
The article is titled (Re)Creating "Society in Silico": Surveillance Capitalism, Simulations and Subjectivity in the Cambridge Analytica Data Scandal, and was published in the international social science journal Partecipazione & Conflitto. It is available open access here: http://siba-ese.unisalento.it/index.php/paco/article/view/24267 <http://siba-ese.unisalento.it/index.php/paco/article/view/24267>
Kind regards, Vito
