Readings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Janet Abbate, Inventing the Internet<\/a><\/em>, MIT Press, 1999, Introduction and chapter 1 (pages 1-41). This is a very readable historical account of early motivations around the invention of the internet. I realize the length is quite long. If you can’t get through all of it, make sure to at least get through the first few sections up to page 20. The key take-aways here are the Cold War anxieties and desires for a “survivable” communication network that drove the creation of the technology that gave us the internet. Also make sure you understand how the idea of packet-switching relates to this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Wendy Chun “Crisis Crisis Crisis or Sovereignty and Networks\u201d<\/a>, Theory, Culture & Society<\/em>, 28(6), 91\u2013112. This is a great article, but a tougher one. It links together some ideas that we’ve already talked about (“state of exception”) with ideas that we’ll be talking about for the next couple weeks (digital network infrastructure). But it is a very academic text that references a lot of other scholarship. Try your best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
