‘What an amazing piece of work this is. Ground-breaking, thought-provoking and highly accessible. Everyone should read it. The dark, scary, exciting song of our age. 100 out of 100’ IRVINE WELSH

Capitalism is dead. Welcome to technofeudalism.

In his boldest and most far-reaching book, the visionary economist and number-one bestselling author Yanis Varoufakis shows how the owners of big tech became the world's feudal overlords – replacing capitalism with a fundamentally new system that enslaves our minds, defies democracy and rewrite the rules of global power.

But as Varoufakis also reveals, technofeudalism contains new opportunities to thwart and overturn it, bringing into focus more clearly than ever the revolution we need to escape our digital prison.

‘An epochal, once-in-a-millennium shift . . . this isn't just new technology. This is the world grappling with an entirely new economic system and therefore political power’ Observer

‘An urgent demand to seize the means of computation’ CORY DOCTOROW

Critic Reviews

A book for anybody who wants to understand the mess we're in - and since we're all in this mess, that makes it a book for everybody (Slavoj Zizek)
With superb storytelling, Varoufakis shows how capitalism has eaten itself alive, mutating into an entirely different and more dangerous beast, and calls on us to free ourselves from digital serfdom (Brett Scott, author of Cloudmoney)
Provocative and accessible, this is sure to be a key touchstone in debates about the future of the global economy (Nick Srnicek, Kings College London)

Interesting and Authentic

It is an important read for anyone who is seriously interested in the deeper economic and political changes in the contemporary world.

With humor, wit and everyday examples Yanis make this otherwise complex analysis and argument accessible to non economist. Offers great insight.

But perhaps what I appreciate the most is his Greek accent and a very 'talking with me' style of presentation .. Makes it authentic and huemane.
