Money Machines
«’As if proving Heidegger correct, what the recent financial crisis clearly demonstrates is the extent to which the techniques and technologies of global finance have remained transparent and virtually invisible. In this eye-opening book, Mark Coeckelbergh expertly exhibits and examines the influential but often unseen machines, machinery, and mechanisms of money that now regulate every aspect of contemporary life.’ David J. Gunkel, Northern Illinois University, USA ’Mark Coeckelbergh is recognized internationally for illuminating the manner in which information and communication technologies (ICTs) create new forms of distancing and in particular moral distancing. This important book extends that analysis to underscore the hidden ways ICTs shape money and global finance, alter relationships, and undermine responsibility.’ Wendell Wallach, Yale University, USA»
