Who Should We Be Online? examines how power and social inequality shape knowledge and fuel misinformation on the internet. Drawing on numerous case studies, Frost-Arnold proposes structural and individual changes to make the internet more conducive to knowledge production and sharing.
Karen Frost-Arnold, in her important and meticulously argued new book, offers a major contribution to researchers of online life across social scientific and humanistic inquiry - and keenly bridges the two. She provides us with an entirely new toolkit and philosophical framework for understanding. For anyone interested in the motivations and (self-) conceptions of those who make up the internet of people, this book is a must-read.
