This book explores the interconnected ways in which the control of
knowledge has become central to the exercise of political,
economic, and social power. Building on the work of International
Political Economy scholar Susan Strange, this multidisciplinary
volume features experts from political science, anthropology, law,
criminology, women's and gender studies, and Science and Technology
Studies, who consider how the control of knowledge is shaping our
everyday lives. From "weaponised copyright" as a censorship tool,
to the battle over control of the internet's "guts," to the effects
of state surveillance at the Mexico-U.S. border, this book offers a
coherent way to understand the nature of power in the twenty-first
century.
