Opis produktu

In this book Duff presents a prescriptive theory to guide the academic and policy communities as they debate the future shape of emerging postindustrial informationbased societies.There is a clear need for a systematic integrative and rigorous normative theory of the information society. In this book Duff offers a prescriptive theory to help to guide the academic and policy communities as they debate the future shape of emerging postindustrial informationbased societies. He argues that information policy needs to become anchored in a leftliberal philosophy which foregrounds a feasible permutation of the core ideals of freedom equality and brotherhood. The information society if it is to be worth having at all cannot be allowed to be largely the outcome of the free play of market forces and technological determinism. The social structure including the information economy must be subjected to a regulatory axiological system as explicated by some leading proponents of social democracy. This text will be of interest to scholars and students at the cutting edge of information studies journalism and media computer science sociology politics philosophy management and law.1.
