« Non seulement Trump n’est pas fou, mais il est dangereux » : Laure Murat, historienne, salue la leçon de démocratie donnée par les citoyens de Minneapolis

Dans une tribune au « Monde », l’essayiste estime que les Etats-Unis connaissent « la plus grande crise institutionnelle » de leur histoire, non par la folie d’un seul homme mais en vertu d’un programme planifié. Selon elle, seul un sursaut collectif peut changer la donne.

🕵💡Very insightful paper on the geopolitics of surveillance capitalism.

"Surveillance capitalism is not just a business model. It is a system, geopolitical, institutional, and epistemic. It is held together by regulation (or lack of), trade rules, policy, and narratives. […] This system did not emerge by accident. It was built through policy frameworks, trade negotiations, legal exemptions, deregulation, development finance, and decades of strategic inaction.”
