This work presents a provocative and wide-ranging introduction to the notion that information technologies are creating new formations of power, control and resistance across the planet. The essays--ranging from the language used by the Bush administration to shape the war on terror, the strategies of media management deployed to shape how the war in Iraq was presented in the public sphere, to the attempts to "brand" economic globalization and strategies of resistance developed by the anti-globalization movement--unearth the new transformations that are unfolding in the twenty first century.
