Long description:
We are living in times of deep and disruptive change. Perhaps the most powerful vector of this change can be described by three related catchphrases: digitalization, artificial intelligence, and dataism. Drawing on considerable expertise from a wide range of scholars and practitioners, this interdisciplinary collection addresses the challenges, impacts, opportunities and regulation of this civilizational transformation from a variety of angles including technology, philosophy, cultural studies, international law, sociology and economics.
This book will be of special interest to scholars, students, analysts, policy planers, and decision makers in think thanks, international organizations, and state agencies studying and dealing with the development and governance of disruptive technologies.
