Produktbeschreibung
This book examines the main challenges facing Marxist political economy to analyze the recent transformations of global capitalism, characterized by the increasing digitalization of economic activity and the dominance of transnational information platforms. It discusses emerging conceptualizations such as "digital labor", "immaterial production" and "group of workers linked to the informational and knowledge sector of the digital economy". It advances in the analysis of the generation, appropriation and distribution of surplus value in informational capitalism, where large technology corporations such as Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft dominate. It studies how digitization, automation of tasks, labor precarization and new forms of data extraction affect the valorization of capital. It analyzes in depth the power relations, tensions and conflicts that cross this new model of capitalist accumulation from the perspective of the theoretical tradition of Marxist political economy.
