The story is narrated in such a captivating way. Readers should be prepared for very serious topics that would warrant a number of content warnings, but the strong way in which the author engages with these themes makes this the very reason to read the book in the first place.
The Hunger Games is a 2008 dystopian novel by the American writer Suzanne Collins. It …
Easy to read and a nice story. If you already saw the movie, you won't be surprised as the plot closely aligns. Still the book adds something to the story by capturing the internal perspective of the protagonist and with some details that the movie left out. #FediBooks

Der Kolonialismus im digitalen Zeitalter - wie Tech-Imperien die Welt unter sich aufteilen
Innovativ, …
Dieses Buch sollte zur Standardlektüre werden für alle, die sich mit Technologie und Gesellschaft auseinandersetzen wollen.
Unglaublich lehrreich und trotz der inhaltlichen Dichte entwickelt sich ein angenehmer Lesefluss, so dass ich das Buch während der einzelnen Kapitel kaum weglegen konnte. Die jeweiligen Kapitel sind jeweils für sich eine wertvolle Sammlung von Informationen, Quellen und Einordnung, die von der sorgfältigen Recherche der Autoren zeugen. Insgesamt ergibt sich schlüssiges Gesamtbild und ein roter Faden, der auch dann gut verfolgt werden kann, wenn zwischen dem Lesen der einzelnen Kapitel etwas mehr Zeit vergeht.
Unbedingte Leseempfehlung, danke für dieses Buch! #FediBooks #DigitalerKolonialismus

A new framework for the digital society that merges the science of degrowth with a …
This is a valuable book with rich empirical insights and with mostly clear writing. It contributes to an important discussion we need to have throughout societies and communities, especially those working on tech or tech-related issues. The first seven chapters and their strong empirical body are the strongest part of the book. The final two chapters, mainly oriented towards normative and instructive descriptions, sometimes feel a bit too repetitive and theory-driven. Still definitely worth reading to the end. The book provides extensive references for further reading and is packed with real-world examples that underpin the topic's relevance and can be an inspiration for activists and storytelling.

The book is starting really strong, with an analysis and explanation of digital colonialism and critical economic theory. A lot of empirical evidence is provided but it does not disrupt the reading flow. Rather it makes me want to continue. Can definitely recommend so far! #FediBooks #DigitalColonialism #DigitalDegrowth #Degrowth #Colonialism #MichaelKwet

The book introduction begins promising. I look forward to read more on the intersection of colonialism, exploitation, climate, global economy and digital politics.
