Abstract "In this book, digital anthropologist Payal Arora proposes ways in which we can envision new design systems and thinking to include the world. Drawing from fieldwork on young people's digital usage in Brazil, India, Bangladesh and Nigeria, Arora reveals how their understandings of algorithmic systems shape their creativity, trust, identity, and political action"-- Provided by publisher.
