Technopoly

In 'Technopoly: The Surrender of Culture to Technology', Neil Postman argues that modern society has transitioned into a 'technopoly', where technology is not just a tool but the central organizing principle of culture.

Postman contends that this shift has radical consequences for politics, art, education, intelligence, and truth.

He describes how technology has become the primary source of moral authority, leading to a culture that values efficiency and technical calculation over human judgment.

The book critiques the pervasive influence of technology on all aspects of life, highlighting issues such as the reduction of truth to data, the dominance of experts in all fields, and the erosion of traditional moral and cultural frameworks.
