Description
The #1 bestselling economist opens our eyes to the new power that is reshaping our lives and the world.
Capitalism is dead. Welcome to technofeudalism.
In his boldest and most far-reaching book, the visionary economist and number-one bestselling author Yanis Varoufakis shows how the owners of big tech became the world's feudal overlordsβreplacing capitalism with a fundamentally new system that enslaves our minds, defies democracy, and rewrites the rules of global power.
But as Varoufakis also reveals, technofeudalism contains new opportunities to thwart and overturn it, bringing into focus more clearly than ever the revolution we need to escape our digital prison.
