Описание: Recognition that access to the Internet is in principle a manifest social good, providing informational and social resources for personal and collective agency, has generated a concerted drive to connect up those currently excluded. Debate has mostly centred on the immediate economic, social and cultural forces of exclusion grouped under the general heading of “digital divides”. Confronting these dynamics is essential but before we rush too eagerly to advocate universal access under current conditions we need to ask ‘access to what and at what general social and environmental costs?’ As the accelerating climate emergency and the continuing covid pandemic have demonstrated with brutal clarity the current production and operation of digital infrastructures and devices rests on a chain of mostly unacknowledged dispossessions and unequal impacts with major consequences for environmental integrity and social justice. This presentation follows Marx in entering these ‘hidden abodes’, from the seizure of indigenous lands, to escalating demands on energy, exploitative manufacture and transportation, and accumulating mountains of electronic waste, and asking how we should respond.
