This title may seem to have little to do with either learning or technology, but the author draws the connections exactly where I would draw them. First, "the neoliberal redefinition of higher education as a private good precisely at the time when U.S. intellectual laborers are seen as too expensive, as increasingly not economically viable in a transnational corporatist order (with) consequent reductions in the number of U.S. 'symbolic workers' will be line with the declining competitiveness of U.S. intellectual labor in a global intellectual labor market." Second, "our techno-corporations are our contemporary colonial powers, restlessly traversing the rhizomatic arrangement of people and places in search of profit and performative nirvanas. By doing so, they aggressively reshape social routines, values and relationships in the process."
