We Count, We Matter

- Voice, Choice and the Death of Distance

Bag om We Count, We Matter

This book examines the contemporary reaction against the establishment or `the system¿ in terms of a new divide between those who wish to see an interconnected world, and those who seek distance through protectionism and opposition to immigration. An analysis that draws on the notion of `face¿ to explore reactions to processes such as automation and globalisation, the author considers people¿s new conception of themselves as networked individuals, able to respond to a sense of alienation and air their grievances on social media, and discusses our move towards a type of society characterised not by honour and dishonour, or right and wrong, but by voice and choice.
