Description
Researching movements in Italy, Hungary, and the United States, Elisabetta Ferrari examines how leftist activists construct “activist technological imaginaries” that appropriate, negotiate, and challenge Silicon Valley’s vision of technology. She argues that these imaginaries reflect and shape the politics of social movement: They matter for how activists think about their political possibilities. Ultimately, Ferrari centers the political and imaginative work that activists need to perform in order to navigate the politics of mainstream digital technologies.
