Abstract

In this transcript of a talk from 2015, Robert W. McChesney discusses the great definitional communication revolutions that have shaped humanity's trajectory. Even a decade ago, McChesney was able to see the fraught relationship between new technology and democracy, the re-emergence of fascism, and the political dangers of the Digital Age.
