The Fourth Industrial Revolution and the Recolonisation of Africa: The Coloniality of Data Website: https://awldkyyb.manus.space/ Cure or curse? Book Summary Benyera argues the Fourth Industrial Revolution furthers Africa's marginalization through data colonialism. Tech companies harvest African data without regulation, transforming it into capital. This continues historical extraction patterns—from slavery to resource exploitation—now as "coloniality of data." Africa's weak institutions enable this digital recolonization, threatening sovereignty and deepening inequality in the continent's ongoing subjugation by powerful global tech oligarchies today. • https://www.researchgate.net/publication/376644695_Book_Review_The_Fourth_Industrial_Revolution_and_the_Recolonisation_of_Africa • Buy Book https://a.co/d/d8e7gC8 https://www.unisa.ac.za/sites/corporate/default/Colleges/Human-Sciences/Schools,-departments,-centres,-institutes-&-units/School-of-Social-Sciences/Department-of-Political-Sciences/Staff-members/Dr-E-Benyera
