  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2024-06-18
  • ISBN : 0691259127
  • Pages : 240 pages

Download or read book Data Driven written by Karen Levy and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-06-18 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A behind-the-scenes look at how digital surveillance is affecting the trucking way of life Long-haul truckers are the backbone of the American economy, transporting goods under grueling conditions and immense economic pressure. Truckers have long valued the day-to-day independence of their work, sharing a strong occupational identity rooted in a tradition of autonomy. Yet these workers increasingly find themselves under many watchful eyes. Data Driven examines how digital surveillance is upending life and work on the open road, and raises crucial questions about the role of data collection in broader systems of social control. Karen Levy takes readers inside a world few ever see, painting a bracing portrait of one of the last great American frontiers. Federal regulations now require truckers to buy and install digital monitors that capture data about their locations and behaviors. Intended to address the pervasive problem of trucker fatigue by regulating the number of hours driven each day, these devices support additional surveillance by trucking firms and other companies. Traveling from industry trade shows to law offices and truck-stop bars, Levy reveals how these invasive technologies are reconfiguring industry relationships and providing new tools for managerial and legal control—and how truckers are challenging and resisting them. Data Driven contributes to an emerging conversation about how technology affects our work, institutions, and personal lives, and helps to guide our thinking about how to protect public interests and safeguard human dignity in the digital age.

Now, after returning home to settle the family estate, brothers Mark and Benjamin discover that some old memories have yet to die. And maybe the same goes for Billy. After all, the body was never discovered. Father Frank Timmons delivers the eulogy for Mrs. Hatcher, and also senses a malignant force in their small community of Kosmosdale, Kentucky.

Townspeople began to go missing. Then one after another of the Hatcher’s children, in town for the funeral, go missing. And it’s up to Sheriff Daniels to solve this mess. But how do you catch a ghost? And what’s in the Hatcher attic?

Book Blue Collar Pop Culture

Download or read book Blue Collar Pop Culture written by M. Keith Booker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-03-09 with total page 745 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From television, film, and music to sports, comics, and everyday life, this book provides a comprehensive view of working-class culture in America. The terms "blue collar" and "working class" remain incredibly vague in the United States, especially in pop culture, where they are used to express and connote different things at different times. Interestingly, most Americans are, in reality, members of the working class, even if they do not necessarily think of themselves that way. Perhaps the popularity of many cultural phenomena focused on the working class can be explained in this way: we are endlessly fascinated by ourselves. Blue-Collar Pop Culture: From NASCAR to Jersey Shore provides a sophisticated, accessible, and entertaining examination of the intersection between American popular culture and working-class life in America. Covering topics as diverse as the attacks of September 11th, union loyalties, religion, trailer parks, professional wrestling, and Elvis Presley, the essays in this two-volume work will appeal to general readers and be valuable to scholars and students studying American popular culture.
