The Promise of Access Technology, Inequality, and the Political Economy of Hope

$32.10

Publisher: The MIT Press

Author: Daniel Greene

Why do we keep trying to solve poverty with technology? What makes us feel that we need to learn to code-or else? In The Promise of Access, Daniel Greene argues that the problem of poverty became a problem of technology in order to manage the contradictions of a changing economy. Greene shows how the digital divide emerged as a policy problem and why simple technological solutions to complex social issues continue to appeal to politicians and professionals who should (and often do) know better.
