Description: Following up on his earlier best - seller The Global Police State this exciting new study by critically - acclaimed scholar and activist William I. Robinson offers a big - picture contribution to understanding contemporary global society in the aftermath of the coronavirus pandemic. It puts forth an original and cutting - edge expos of the radical transformation of global capitalism now underway driven by new digital technologies and turbo - charged by the pandemic. It provides shocking data and analysis on the concentration of power and control in the hands of corporate conglomerates tech giants mega - banks and the military - industrial complex. The book documents the extent of unprecedented global inequalities as the mass of humanity faces violent dispossession and uncertain survival. Enabled by digital applications the ruling groups unless they are pushed to change course by mass pressure from below will turn to ratcheting up the global police state to contain the global revolt. If the book issues a dire warning against the emergence of a dystopic digitalized dictatorship it also finds great hope and inspiration in the burgeoning social movements of the poor and the dispossessed as humanity descends into global civil war. While deeply analytical and theoretically sophisticated the study is written in such a style that it is eminently accessible to a wider public beyond the academy. While the work will satisfy scholars it is destined to become a companion text to those struggling on the frontlines for global social justice and a more hopeful future.
