Description

Social Media and Capitalism: People, Communities and Commodities by Suddhabrata Deb Roy explores how social media has transformed our lives. This book examines the impact of social media commerce on society and individuals, using Marxist political economy and social theory to understand its effects. Through real-world interactions, interviews, and observations, the author uncovers the ways in which trading and commercial activities performed through virtual communities shape our relationships with each other and the world around us. By critically investigating these changes, Deb Roy sheds light on the complex dynamics of capitalism in the digital age. This book offers a nuanced analysis of social media's role in shaping our socio-political fabric, providing valuable insights for anyone interested in understanding the intersection of technology, economy, and society.
