The digital revolution is changing the world in ecologically
unsustainable ways: (1) it increases the economic and political
power of the elites controlling and interpreting the data; (2) it
is based on the deep assumptions of market liberalism that do not
recognize environmental limits; (3) it undermines face-to-face and
context-specific forms of knowledge; (4) it undermines awareness of
the metaphorical nature of language; (5) its promoters are driven
by the myth of progress and thus ignore important cultural
traditions of the cultural commons that are being lost; and (6) it
both by-passes the democratic process and colonizes other cultures.
This book provides an in-depth examination of these phenomena and
connects them to questions of educational reform in the US and
beyond.
