Is control is the cultural logic of the 21st century?

Starting from Deleuze''s brief but influential work on control, the 11 essays in this book focus on how control mechanisms influence, and are influenced by, cultural expression today. They also collectively re-evaluate Foucault and Deleuze''s theories of discipline and control in light of the continued development of biopolitics.

Written by an impressive line-up of contemporary scholars of philosophy, politics and culture the essays cover the particularity of control in relation to various fields and modes of expression including literature, cinema, television, music and philosophy.

Industry Reviews

Criticizing and extending Deleuze's notion of "control society," these essays sharply investigate the philosophical, political, and artistic possibilities of resistance and transformation in a world of ever-shifting monitoring, nudging, and co-optation. From fit-bits to data mining, from wellness programs to echo chambers, the bio-informatics that inform daily practices are here interrogated with nuance and panache.-- "John Protevi, Louisiana State University"
