Firstly, the ambivalences between global infrastructures and local invisibilities challenge the grand narrative of the ephemeral nature of a global data infrastructure. They make visible local working and living conditions, and the resources and arrangements required to operate and run them. Secondly, the book examines ambivalences between the state and data justice. It considers data justice in relation to state surveillance and data capitalism, and reflects on the ambivalences between an “entrepreneurial state” and a “welfare state”. Thirdly, the authors discuss ambivalences of everyday practices and collective action, in which civil society groups, communities, and movements try to position the interests of people against the “big players” in the tech industry. The book includes eighteen chapters that provide new and varied perspectives on the role of data and data infrastructures in our increasingly datafied societies.Transforming Communications - Studies in Cross-Media ResearchMedia studiesbicsscSociologybicsscdata infrastructuredata literacysurveillancealgorithmsdata capitalismcritical data researchdeep mediatizationbig datapostcolonial dataMedia studiesSociology303.483303.483Hepp Andreas925812Jarke Juliane906899Kramp Leif1237700AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910571783403321New Perspectives in Critical Data Studies2872995UNINA
