Capitalism and the Information Age
From the publisher:
Capitalism and the Information Age presents fourteen new essays by leading critical thinkers, taking on the communications revolution from the vantage point of history and political economy. Robert W. McChesney on the myths of the global village; Heather Menzies on the information economy; Noam Chomsky and Edward Herman on the role of propaganda; Ellen Meiksins Wood on dreams of postmodernity; Elaine Bernard and Sid Shniad on neoliberalism in telecommunications; and others on the growing tension between the democratic potential of info-tech and the demands for capitalist profit.
