How is labour changing in the age of computers, the Internet, and
"social media" such as Facebook, Google, YouTube and Twitter? In
Digital Labour and Karl Marx, Christian Fuchs attempts to answer
that question, crafting a systematic critical theorisation of
labour as performed in the capitalist ICT industry. Relying on a
range of global case studies--from Chinese workers at Foxconn
Shenzhen to miners in the Democratic Republic of Congo--Fuchs sheds
light on the labour costs of digital media, examining the way ICT
corporations exploit human labour and the impact of this
exploitation on the lives, bodies, and minds of workers.
