Inhaltsangabe
Bloomsbury presents The Digital Republic by Jamie Susskind, read by Jamie Susskind.
A Financial Times Book to Read in 2022
The Digital Republic is the definitive guide to the great political question of our time: how can freedom and democracy survive in a world of powerful digital technologies?
Not long ago, the tech industry was widely admired and the internet was regarded as a tonic for freedom and democracy. Not anymore. Every day, the headlines blaze with reports of racist algorithms, data leaks, and social media platforms festering with falsehood and hate. In The Digital Republic, acclaimed author Jamie Susskind argues that these problems are not the fault of a few bad apples at the top of the industry. They are the result of our failure to govern technology properly, a failure derived from decades of muddled ideas and wishful thinking.
The Digital Republic charts a new course, with new legal standards, new public bodies and institutions, new duties on platforms, new rights and regulators, and new codes of conduct for people in the tech industry. Inspired by the great political essays of the past, and steeped in the traditions of republican thought, it offers a vision of a different type of society: a digital republic in which human and technological flourishing go hand in hand.
Kritikerstimmen
"Jamie Susskind has established himself as one of the foremost thinkers on the transformative impact of the technology revolution. The Digital Republic is as innovative in its ideas as it is sharp with its analysis, offering an important contribution to the future of technology regulation while bridging the gap between changemakers and policymakers." (Tony Blair)
"A deeply engaging and thought-provoking book which should be read by everyone (including those with no technical knowledge) who wants to understand how AI can affect our lives, and how we could rise to the challenges this presents." (Lord Neuberger of Abbotsbury, President of the UK Supreme Court - 2012-2017)
"In the shadow of algorithmic discrimination, Big Tech's overarching power, and menacing cyberwarfare, Susskind offers an alternative, enticing and convincing in equal parts: digital republicanism. I am sold. Read this book." (Viktor Mayer-Schönberger, co-author of Big Data and Framers)

A book with a long-term effect for our digital future
Anyone who agrees with the assumption that "data is the new oil" should definitely have read this book. In "The Digital Republic" Jamie Susskind describes how and why our digital lives primarily follow the rules of a few big tech companies. He makes a very convincing and detailed case for why we urgently need to rethink and finally, as citizens and not users, define clear rules for our digital democracies and thus our future, beyond commercial interests. An excellent and very timely inspiration that belongs on the desks of all decision makers in the democratic world who are seriously considering how we need to make our open societies digitally resilient.
