The World Computer: Derivative Conditions of Racial Capitalism (Thought in the Act)

Jonathan Beller

4.9/5 (34890 ratings)

Description:"The World Computer offers an analysis of the conditions by which computable information colonizes semiotics in racial capitalism's global calculus of who may access how much of the social product and who may be made to die. Taking the notion that Capital was always a computer as a starting point, The World Computer understands the history of the commodification of life as a process of encrypting the world's myriad qualities as quantities. Formal and informal techniques, from double entry bookkeeping and racialization, to the rise of information and discrete state machines, imposed and extended the tyranny of racial capital's relentless calculus of profit. Currently the money-likeness of expression-visible as "likes" and in other attention metrics that treat attention and affect as currency-is symptomatic of the financialization of everyday life. All expression, no matter what its valence, is conscripted by algorithms of profit that intensify inequality by being put in the service of racial capitalism"--We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
