Truckers have long valued the day-to-day independence of their work, sharing a strong occupational identity rooted in a tradition of autonomy. Yet these workers increasingly find themselves under many watchful eyes. \u003cem\u003eData Driven\u003c\/em\u003e examines how digital surveillance is upending life and work on the open road, and raises crucial questions about the role of data collection in broader systems of social control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKaren Levy takes readers inside a world few ever see, painting a bracing portrait of one of the last great American frontiers. Federal regulations now require truckers to buy and install digital monitors that capture data about their locations and behaviours. Intended to address the pervasive problem of trucker fatigue by regulating the number of hours driven each day, these devices support additional surveillance by trucking firms and other companies. Travelling from industry trade shows to law offices and truck-stop bars, Levy reveals how these invasive technologies are reconfiguring industry relationships and providing new tools for managerial and legal control—and how truckers are challenging and resisting them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eData Driven\u003c\/em\u003e contributes to an emerging conversation about how technology affects our work, institutions, and personal lives. It helps to guide our thinking about how to protect public interests and safeguard human dignity in the digital age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47362552201452,"sku":"9780691175300","price":64.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/1740143482434.jpg?v=1772891300"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/karen-levy.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
