Uncovering the class conflicts, geopolitical dynamics, and
aggressive capitalism propelling the militarization of the internet
Global surveillance, computational propaganda, online espionage,
virtual recruiting, massive data breaches, hacked nuclear
centrifuges and power grids-concerns about cyberwar have been
mounting, rising to a fever pitch after the alleged Russian hacking
of the U.S. presidential election and the Cambridge Analytica
scandal. Although cyberwar is widely discussed, few accounts
undertake a deep, critical view of its roots and consequences.
Analyzing the new militarization of the internet, Cyberwar and
Revolution argues that digital warfare is not a bug in the logic of
global capitalism but rather a feature of its chaotic, disorderly
unconscious. Urgently confronting the concept of cyberwar through
the lens of both Marxist critical theory and psychoanalysis, Nick
Dyer-Witheford and Svitlana Matviyenko provide a wide-ranging
examination of the class conflicts and geopolitical dynamics
propelling war across digital networks. Investigating the
subjectivities that cyberwar mobilizes, exploits, and bewilders,
and revealing how it permeates the fabric of everyday life and
implicates us all in its design, this book also highlights the
critical importance of the emergent resistance to this digital
militarism-hacktivism, digital worker dissent, and off-the-grid
activism-for effecting different, better futures.
