Book part: Service Orientations. Data, Institutions, Labor
Abstract
Our central interest in this essay is to consider the
role of the database as a technology of governance
and the scramble of power as it relates to a capacity
to model the world and exert influence upon it.
We argue Software as a Service is more than a new
vogue term of the IT industry, constituting a longer
temporal horizon and more complex rearrangement
of relations between data and labor to which the
database and its entailments remain critical.
