The Coded World: Loss of Democracy and Abandonment of Knowledge
Neroliberalism is the enemy of knowledge. That is the central thesis. Specialized knowledge and the experience of skilled workers over years are sought less and less in a world ruled by simple numbers and algorithms. Through economization, powerful private enterprises arose that manipulated or withheld information. The original English title of Colin Crouch's new book is "The Knowledge Corrupters. The Financial Takeover of Public Life."
