Media Review: Neo-Luddites, Unite! Worker resistance in an era of real dystopian threats
重新审视了“卢德分子”这一历史标签,探讨在当代反乌托邦威胁下,工人如何从历史抵抗中汲取力量,挑战技术决定论,适合关注劳动权益与技术批判的读者。
Legend has it that every time someone says the word ‘Luddite’ out loud, somewhere in Silicon Valley a tech executive is jolted awake, bathing in sweat. In contemporary usage, Luddite has become a derogatory term of sorts, used to refer to people who are ‘against progress’ and afraid of technological change. Or could it be that this historic resistance group is misunderstood, and that we have something to learn from them about our own agency in the future of work?
