About this book
Reviews
“In this incisive analysis of why “the control paradigm” is so intuitive to adults but so alienating for young people, the authors call for a radical rethinking of society’s approach to all things “young+digital.” Read this book to see why a societal shift is vital and urgent to further the best interests of those growing up in today's digital world.” (Professor Sonia Livingstone, London School of Economics and Political Science and www.parenting.digital)
“The importance of this book cannot be exaggerated. Control Shift provides the scholarship we adults need to make the pivot of the 21st century: from dictating to young people to partnering with them to discover together what’s best for them and the planet. Control => shift is literally the imperative of our time: essential, urgent.” (Anne Collier, writer and founder, NetFamilyNews.org & The Net Safety Collaborative)
