Description
The social implications of data collection and analysis are profound. Data Justice explores how our digital lives are shaped by power relations that affect us all. From access to services to the risk of being targeted, datafication impacts every aspect of our lives. This book delves into the intricate relationship between data-driven technology and automation, examining how societies are, will, and should be affected. It outlines key concepts such as data capitalism, data colonialism, and data activism, providing a comprehensive guide to understanding the injustices of life in a datafied society. A call to challenge and reimagine these injustices, Data Justice is an urgent resource for anyone working or studying across critical data studies, and those interested in the social consequences of big data, smart technology, and AI.
