Taylor & Francis Ltd The Political Economy of Digital Ecosystems
Book SynopsisThis book connects political economy perspectives with scenario planning for mapping out future trajectories of digital ecosystems. The focus is purposefully on digital ecosystems as it encompasses economic, political and social contexts on a global, national and local level. The diversity of political economy approaches allows the author to explore alternative meanings of digital ecosystem development, which is particularly useful for envisioning alternative futures. Often visions about the future of digital ecosystems suffer from a lack of imagination and confirmation bias which is favorable to the extrapolation of current trends. A wide range of political economy perspectives applied through positivist theorizing in this book shows different interpretations of developments in digital ecosystems. Scenario planning teams around the world have applied a collective imagination to show how future trajectories can be radically different from the current trends. The book outlinesTable of Contents1. Introduction 2. The Emergence of Digital Ecosystems 3. Global Political Economy of Digital Ecosystems 4. Multilevel Formal and Informal Governance of Digital Ecosystems 5. Scenario Planning for Global Political Economy 6. Alternative Scenarios for Digital Ecosystems 7. Alternative Futures for European Digital Ecosystems 8. Implications for Estonia 9.

HarperCollins Publishers Inc Reprogramming the American Dream From Rural
Book SynopsisTrade Review"I hope you, like me, appreciate that Kevin finds some balance between the poles of 'the robots are coming for our jobs!' and 'AI is great, nothing to worry about!' I suspect that, in the coming decades, we'll increasingly recognize the wisdom of that view." — J.D. Vance, New York Times bestselling author of Hillbilly Elegy All good futures for our society and for humanity broadly require harnessing technology. Kevin has written a very important book here. He shows how and why to have optimism about artificial intelligence, harnessing the technology to restore the American Dream. What's the future we should work towards? Kevin's book shines the light forward. Highly recommended. — Reid Hoffman, co-founder of Linkedin and author of Blitzscaling "Kevin's examination of AI and the future of rural communities like the one in which he grew up in rural Virginia provides an unusually personal and empathetic perspective on how we can, together, create opportunity for ourselves, our organizations, and our world." — Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft "Scott’s version of our AI future is a refreshingly optimistic one, and it’s coming from someone who knows the technology very, very well." — Fast Company
