Sažetak
Bilić, Primorac and Valtysson provide an overview of how technology, labour and politics can be problematized. The book is divided into four parts, each emphasising different aspects of the complex issue at hand from a variety of social science and humanities perspectives. Contradictions are taken as heuristic devices that help them understand the frictions between technology and labour. The Technology, Labour and Politics in the 21st Century – Old Struggles in New Clothing finds three cross-cutting issues defining this area. First, labour and economic valorisation are increasingly ocurring outside of the traditional concept of work. Second, digital technology does not imply a fixed existence under capital. It is malleable and mouldable. Third, contradictions between digital technologies and labour display political tensions without organized awareness or dissent.
