2.7 We Meme you no Harm - Making sense of the Cambridge Analytica story with Will Davies

Media Democracy Pod

This week Tom and Dan are joined by Will Davies, Reader in Political Economy at Goldsmiths and author of 'The Happiness Industry' and 'The Limits of Neoliberalism'. Will is a regular contributor to the London Review of Books and his most recent article there looks at the scandals and anxieties that intersect at the Cambridge Analytica story. We talk with Will about the relationship between digital technology and the political process, about the liberal public sphere, and much else besides. Music by Makaih Beats.
