The Poison Diaries

"In presenting his analysis, Fuchs displays an extensive command of the literature of cultural analysis as well as an equally impressive familiarity with the work of Marx and those who analyze it. In short, this valuable book offers very insightful analysis into the nature of life in the contemporary world, which may offer some guidance for improving the condition of modern life." - M. Perelman, California State University, Chico, Highly Recommended Review in CHOICE
"This book is a tour de force. Drawing on a comprehensive re-reading of Marx and critical theory, Christian Fuchs demonstrates how everyday activity on social media is integral to the system of global exploitation that is restructuring contemporary capitalism. His powerful critique of the promotional rhetorics surrounding the Internet and his call for action deserves to be read and debated by anyone seriously interested in the future directions of economic and cultural life." —Graham Murdock, Professor of Culture and Economy, Loughborough University

"Drawing inspiration from Raymond Williams and Dallas Smythe, Christian Fuchs turns his critical eye and formidable talents to the deep connections between culture and economy in the age of social media. Rich in conceptual insights and supported with prodigious empirical detail covering labour and consumption in the West and in China, Culture and Economy in the Age of Social Media points the way to how we might retake public control of the digital world." —Vincent Mosco, author of To the Cloud: Big Data in a Turbulent World

"Christian Fuchs’s excellent book demonstrates why social media must be analysed critically as both an economic and a cultural phenomenon, unlike the conservatism of idealist social science, which has much to say about communication yet is silent about the materiality of communications." —Jim McGuigan, author of Cool Capitalism

"Kunnan’s thoughtfully-grounded principles and wide-ranging illustrative examples will quickly become—and long endure as—the landmark reference for all discussions of fairness and justice in language testing. The book establishes an innovative, rigorous, and thorough conceptual framework to evaluate the actual uses of language assessments in society."Alister Cumming, University of Toronto, Canada, and Beijing Foreign Studies University, China
"Fairness and justice, the two important qualities of any assessment and assessment practice, seem to be suspect in most if not all assessments. This volume shows how we can apply ethical thinking to address these issues in actual practice. Antony Kunnan provides theory, practice and research to put forward his compelling arguments that make the book a superb resource for everyone concerned with assessment."Rama Mathew, Delhi University, India
"This concise volume makes a timely contribution to the language assessment literature by building on Kunnan’s concerns for fairness and justice. In a systematic way, he takes the reader through a process of justification that can lead to clearer thinking about the use of assessments and to fairer outcomes."Nick Saville, University of Cambridge, UK
