This edited collection analyzes the role of digital technology in
contemporary society dialectically. While many authors,
journalists, and commentators have argued that the internet and
digital technologies will bring us democracy, equality, and
freedom, digital culture often results in loss of privacy,
misinformation, and exploitation. This collection challenges
celebratory readings of digital technology by suggesting digital
culture's potential is limited because of its fundamental
relationship to oppressive social forces. The Dialectic of Digital
Culture explores ways the digital realm challenges and reproduces
power. The contributors provide innovative case studies of various
phenomenon including #metoo, Etsy, mommy blogs, music streaming,
sustainability, and net neutrality to reveal the reproduction of
neoliberal cultural logics. In seemingly transformative digital
spaces, these essays provide dialectical readings that challenge
dominant narratives about technology and study specific aspects of
digital culture that are often under explored. Check out the blog
