Hyperconnectivity and Its Discontents
A brilliant synthesis in which Rogers Brubaker charts the social consequences of a world in which everyone and everything are connected to everyone and everything else, everywhere and all the time.
Tailor-made for teaching!

Currently have Fourcade & Kluttz's "A Maussian Bargain" - would love to assign this alongside a more ethnographic piece, or a different context for thinking of digital gifts.

Currently using a chapter from Hayles's "How we became posthuman" around the defining of "information" but something that makes the connections more explicitly would be useful.
