In Conversation on The Age of Surveillance Capitalism
Monday September 27, 6:00-7:15pm
Shoshana Zuboff, Author, of The Age of Surveillance Capitalism, Harvard Business School Professor Emerita
We are living in the social and political chaos created by the digital age—what author and Harvard business professor Shoshana Zuboff predicted in her groundbreaking, epoch-defining bestseller The Age of Surveillance Capitalism. Now, as we brace ourselves through pandemic-related waves of economic, social, and political instability, Zuboff presents the solution we must embrace—and soon: “We may have democracy or we may have surveillance society, but we cannot have both”.
