Sinopsis

Workplaces are key sites where computers were first introduced, transforming organizations, senses of self, and visions of the future. In contrast to narratives today, this process was not always smooth or welcome. Workers and organizations responded to the changes in different ways, forming their own emotional communities and senses of connection in light of sweeping changes. The contributors to this volume explore the global history of the computer age from the perspectives of work, gender, and emotions. The eight case studies span Europe, Asia, and Latin America to shed light on the global computer age in the last few decades as well as trends we are witnessing today, such as artificial intelligence.
