本書立足於新自由主義與傳播新科技強勢結盟的語境，彙集了全球學界同仁的前沿理論研究，以期勾勒出當今全球的傳播新格局，並對市場化的新媒體場域中愈演愈烈的社會不平等加以審視。新冠疫情發生以來，數字平台日益成為人們賴以生存的信息生產、傳播與流通手段，在「市場原教旨主義」的旗號下，跨國資本的力量通過數字媒體無孔不入地滲透進人們的日常生活中。待到人們從新自由主義描繪的「數字烏托邦」泡影中幡然醒悟，他們不得不面對的是天羅地網的自動化監控對人類行為剩餘價值的肆意攫取，以及作為「知產階級」不穩定的就業形式與被操控的情感勞動，乃至國內階層不平等與國際南北不平等的共謀下更深層次的掠奪。與此同時，基於對新媒體的運用，全球範圍內的黑客組織與普通公民已然吹響了網路行動的號角。總而言之，新自由主義借助傳播新科技的羽翼，正悄無聲息地將社會不平等的種子播撒至數字網路所及之處，政治訴求、資本利益與市民生活之間的尖銳矛盾值得人們警醒，新媒體與新自由主義重新組織的形式理性已經成為大眾生活的規定性，反思與質疑精神應是當下新媒體研究理論化的基本內功！
