The enormous positivity surrounding it conceals the instrumental economic rationality underpinning the notion as corporations silently sell consumer data for profit. Status chasing is just one aspect of a process of transforming qualitative aspects of social interactions into quantifiable metrics for easier processing, prediction, and behavioural shaping. A work of critical media studies, Social Capital Online examines the idea within the new 'network spectacle' of digital capitalism via the ideas of Marx, Veblen, Debord, Baudrillard and Deleuze. Explaining how such phenomena as online narcissism and aggression arise, Faucher offers a new theoretical understanding of how the spectacularisation of online activity perfectly aligns with the value system of neoliberalism and its data worship. Even so, at the centre of all, lie familiar ideas - alienation and accumulation - new conceptions of which he argues are vital for understanding today's digital society." 410 0$aCDSMS (Series) 517 $aSocial Capital Online 606 $aInformation technology$xSocial aspects 606 $aSocial capital (Sociology) 606 $aSocial media$xSocial aspects 615 0$aInformation technology$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSocial capital (Sociology) 615 0$aSocial media$xSocial aspects. 676 $a303.4833 700 $aFaucher$b Kane X.$0964836 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476788703321 996 $aSocial capital online$92189056 997 $aUNINA
