Abstrakt: In "The Gilded Cage: Technology, Development, and State Capitalism in China," Ya-Wen Lei explores China's sociotechnical changes from the mid-2000s, focusing on the intertwining relationship between the state and tech companies in shaping a new sociotechnical order. Lei argues that China's pursuit of technological development has led to a complex interplay of economic growth, social control, and inequality. The book delves into China's transition to a digital capitalist system characterized by symbiotic yet asymmetrical power relationships between tech capital and the state, shedding light on the impact of China's techno-development on traditional manufacturing sectors and internet-related industries.
