Publisher's Synopsis
Discussions around digital technologies, new media, platforms and information have centred on the protection of personal data and privacy. However, privacy studies have offered a limited perspective for addressing the underlying issues which go beyond individual rights and speak to fundamental problems of political economy, new infrastructures, and emerging power formations. This edited collection will extend the academic conversation, addressing the above via three integral and intertwined levels: people, practices, and politics. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the book will offer new and innovative perspectives on our datafied societies that go beyond privacy.
