Description
Capital Is Dead: A New Ruling Class? In this provocative new book, McKenzie Wark argues that information has given rise to a new kind of ruling class. By controlling the flow of information, this emergent class wields significant power over both labour and capital. The traditional dominance of capital is being challenged by the ownership and control of information, which is now being used to outmanoeuvre labour and social movements. The implications of this new class are far-reaching, and Wark offers a detailed analysis of the contemporary condition. Drawing on a wide range of theoretical perspectives, he provides a nuanced understanding of the emerging class forces that shape our world. This book is a timely and thought-provoking exploration of the ways in which information is being used to shape our society.
