Contemporary cultures offer contradictory views of the internet and
new media technologies, painting them in extremes of optimistic
enthusiasm and pessimistic foreboding. While some view them as
a repository of hopes for democracy, freedom and self-realisation,
others consider these developments as sources of alienation,
dehumanisation and danger. This book explores such representations,
and situates them within the traditions of Utopian and dystopian
thought that have shaped the Western cultural imaginary. Ranging
from ancient poetry to post-humanism, and classical sociology to
science fiction, it uncovers the roots of our cultural responses to the
internet, which are centred upon a profoundly ambivalent reaction to
technological modernity. Majid Yar argues that only by understanding
our society s reactions to technological innovation can we develop
a balanced and considered response to the changes and challenges
that the internet brings in its wake.
