`What an amazing piece of work this is. The dark, scary, exciting song of our age. 100 out of 100¿ IRVINE WELSH

In his boldest and most far-reaching book yet, world-famous economist Yanis Varoufakis argues that capitalism is dead and a new economic era has begun.

Insane sums of money that were supposed to re-float our economies in the wake of the financial crisis and the pandemic have ended up supercharging big tech's hold over every aspect of the economy. Capitalism's twin pillars - markets and profit - have been replaced with big tech's platforms and rents. Meanwhile, with every click and scroll, we labour like serfs to increase its power. Welcome to technofeudalism.

Drawing on stories from Greek Myth and pop culture, from Homer to Mad Men, Varoufakis explains this revolutionary transformation: how it enslaves our minds, how it rewrites the rules of global power and ultimately what it will take overthrow it.

'Utterly accessible, deeply humane and startlingly original' NAOMI KLEIN on Talking To My Daughter

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

We think we still live under capitalism. Yanis Varoufakis — the economist, former Greek finance minister, and bestselling author of Talking to My Daughter About the Economy — argues we're wrong. Capitalism has been quietly replaced by something new and potentially worse: technofeudalism.

In this bold, urgent book, Varoufakis shows how platforms like Amazon, Google, and Facebook have become digital fiefdoms — not markets. Their owners are not capitalists in the traditional sense but feudal lords extracting rent from everyone who must use their platforms to work, sell, or simply exist online. The result? A new serfdom, dressed up as innovation.

Written as a letter to his late father, Technofeudalism is at once personal and political — a passionate, accessible argument about where power really lies in the 21st century.
