Beschreibung
This book offers a timely philosophical and educational account of the changing human condition in an age shaped by artificial intelligence, algorithmic governance, data-driven infrastructures, and digital platforms. Extending debates on the Anthropocene beyond planetary transformation, it argues that contemporary societies are also being reshaped at the level of perception, knowledge, judgment, agency, and action. Rather than treating digital technologies as external tools, the book conceptualizes them as environments that actively preconfigure human possibilities. Drawing on philosophical anthropology, political philosophy, Hannah Arendt’s thought, Bildung theory, digital ontology, and the philosophy of education, it develops a framework for understanding how algorithmic systems transform human agency, responsibility, freedom, citizenship, and education in digitally mediated societies. By introducing the concept of the Digitalocene, the book bridges Anthropocene studies, AI and society, education theory, media studies, science and technology studies, and digital society research. It is essential reading for scholars and graduate students interested in digital transformation, human formation, algorithmic environments, AI ethics, democratic citizenship, and the future of education.
