A Paradoxical World and the Role of Technology in Thana-Capitalism
Abstract
In this chapter, we hold the thesis that, although technology introduced a plenty of liberties and rights for humankind, which are protected by democracy, it resulted in a much deeper disciplinary mechanism that leads to censorship. To put this in other terms, in Medieval Times, writers, thinkers whose text defied the authority of King or Catholic Church were jailed, tortured and condemned to the stake. The power of coaction emanating from Prince exerted violence as an efficient instrument of dissuasion, circumscribing the Leviathan's whims. The dissemination of books was limited to those authors who were conducive to status quo.
