Abstract
In The Rulers, Cecilia Rikap argues that Big Tech has moved beyond classic bureaucratic monopoly capitalism. Today’s tech giants rule through networked capitalism and intellectual monopolies, an ecosystem of organisations linked through centralised control over knowledge, digital infrastructures, and data. The book brilliantly explains what Big Tech’s global power means for contemporary political economy, writes Tim Christiaens.
