Ebury Press The People Vs Tech. How the internet is killing democracy (and how we save it) Бартлетт Джейми

The internet was meant to set us free • Tech has radically changed the way we live our lives. But have we unwittingly handed too much away to shadowy powers behind a wall of code, all manipulated by a handful of Silicon Valley utopians, ad men, and venture capitalists? And, in light of recent data breach scandals around companies like Facebook and Cambridge Analytica, what does that mean for democracy, our delicately balanced system of government that was created long before big data, total information and artificial intelligence? In this urgent polemic, Jamie Bartlett argues that through our unquestioning embrace of big tech, the building blocks of democracy are slowly being removed. The middle class is being eroded, sovereign authority and civil society is weakened, and we citizens are losing our critical faculties, maybe even our free will

Ebury Press The Children's Block Kraus Otto B

'We lived on a bunk built for four but in times of overcrowding, it slept seven and at times even eight.

We grow intimate not only in body but also in mind because we knew that though we were not born of one womb, we would certainly die together.' • Alex Ehren is a poet, a prisoner and a teacher in block 31 in Auschwitz-Birkenau, the children's block. He spends his days trying to survive while illegally giving lessons to his young charges while shielding them as best he can from the impossible horrors of the camp.
