- More about Fractal Leadership: Ideologisation from the 1960s to Contemporary Social Movements
Fractal Leadership explores how algorithm-based information flows and viral affectivity replicate a amorphous structure from local to global levels, leading to the fractalization of movement leadership and its implications for class formation and the authoritarian turn in global politics.
Format: Hardback
Length: 284 pages
Publication date: 27 October 2023
Publisher: Emerald Publishing Limited
Fractal Leadership delves into the intricate dynamics of leadership formation within social movements facilitated or amplified by algorithm-driven information flows and viral affectivity. Through captivating illustrations, the book showcases how a somewhat amorphous structure is replicated across various scales, from intimate local communities to global arenas, with remarkable repetitions that occur almost effortlessly, spanning from one level to another. This process not only brings forth new forms of leaders but also enables swift and massive public followings, only to swiftly sweep them away.
Including original primary research conducted alongside fieldwork from Extinction Rebellion and Black Lives Matter, as well as archival research of the New Left movements of the 1960s, Karatzogianni and Matthews explore the profound impact of the digital transformation of temporality on the ideologization process, movement organizational structure, and the implicated biolabour process. This exploration leads to the fractalization of movement leadership, with devastating consequences for class formation and the authoritarian turn in global politics.
Fractal Leadership serves as a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and activists seeking to understand the evolution of leadership in social movements from the 1960s to the present day. By examining the interplay between technology, temporality, and movement dynamics, the book offers insightful perspectives on the challenges and opportunities facing contemporary social movements.
