Reviews
"Recent decades have seen a sustained political assault on education, stripping it of its wider social purpose and reducing it to a personal investment and instrumental training for work. The progressive application of digital technologies have played a central role in redefining teaching and learning. Based on a very clear political economy of communications framework, the authors of this book demonstrate in detail how innovations have served the wider neo-liberal reorganisation of contemporary capitalism. Anyone concerned with the construction of the future needs to read it and respond." -- Graham Murdock, Loughborough University and Vice President of the International Association of Communication and Media Research (IAMCR) "This book offers a unique and timely study of the interrelationships between digital platform industries and higher education. It breaks new ground by providing a critical analysis of the latest information-communication technological trends in higher education from a political economy approach" -- Marko Ampuja, Tampere University and University of Helsinki

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (845)
- o***a (347)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThere was a problem with the item upon receipt however the seller was quick to respond and provided multiple options for resolution, all of which were fair and reasonable. Within a day of arrival the matter was resolved. Seller is professional and prompt in communication. I was impressed by the paint job and finish on the metal plates of the belt. At the price point it doesn't get any better. It looks even better in person than it does in the pics. Would buy again.
