Streeter demonstrates that our ideas about what connected computers are for have been in constant flux since their invention. In the 1950's they were imagined as the means for fighting nuclear wars, in the 1960's as systems for bringing mathematical certainty to the messy complexity of social life, in the 1970's as countercultural playgrounds, in the 1980's as an icon for what's good about free markets, in the 1990's as a new frontier to be conquered and, by the late 1990's, as the transcendence of markets in an anarchist open source utopia. The Net Effect teases out how culture has influenced the construction of the internet and how the structure of the internet has played a role in cultures of social and political thought. It argues that the internet's real and imagined anarchic qualities are not a product of the technology alone, but of the historical peculiarities of how it emerged and was embraced. Finding several different traditions at work in the development of the internet—most uniquely, romanticism—Streeter demonstrates how the creation of technology is shot through with profoundly cultural forces—with the deep weight of the remembered past, and the pressures of shared passions made articulate.Critical cultural communication.Computers and civilizationComputersSocial aspectsInformation technologySocial aspectsInternetSocial aspectsComputers and civilization.ComputersSocial aspects.Information technologySocial aspects.InternetSocial aspects.303.48/33Streeter Thomas140855MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910826203403321The Net Effect3937449UNINA01118nam0 22002891i 450 UON0006300220231205102316.43420020107d1978 |0itac50 barusRU|||| 1||||Agrarnoe razvitie Egipta, Iraka i SiriiAleksander Alekseevic TracenkoMoskvaAkademija Nauk1978158 p.22 cmEconomiaIraqUONC010676FIEconomiaIraqSec. 20.UONC018163FIEgittoEconomiaUONC019201FIRUMoskvaUONL003152ARA XIIPAESI ARABI - ECONOMIAATRACENKOAleksandr AlekseevicUONV040262656079Akademija Nauk SSSRUONV247334650ITSOL20250905RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00063002SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI ARA XII 035 SI SA 54973 5 035 Agrarnoe razvitie Egipta, Iraka i Sirii1172459UNIOR
