Contrary to the prevailing narratives of “digital empowerment” and opportunities for every individual, this book argues that digitalisation massively curtails social advancement opportunities, consolidating existing social relations. From a spatial perspective, Scheffer demonstrates how socially disadvantaged groups are faced with reproducing mechanisms as part of a new data economy. Surprisingly, the more intensively digital services are used, the more this happens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                \u003cp\u003e\n                    \u003cbr\u003e\n                \u003c\/p\u003e\n                \u003cp\u003eBuilding on Löw´s sociology of space and Bourdieu´s concept of habitus, this book shows how practices of social exclusion are transferred to the digital present in an innovative way. The image of “mirrored” spaces describes a new mechanism that explains social exclusion in the age of digitalisation. This book is an essential resource for researchers and students interestedin socio-economic inequalities, processes of digitalisation, and digital geographies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783658427924\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSocial Inequality in the Digital Age\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9783658427924","offer_id":49733825331525,"sku":"9783658427924","price":32.09,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/365f9729-9743-4085-91d7-86520b55d792.jpg?v=1766645195","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/mirrored-spaces-von-jorg-scheffer","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
