Biografische Anmerkung
Inhaltsverzeichnis

'Threat Talk' exposes how US and Chinese scientists and policy-makers have understood and responded to the problem of internet addiction in their societies. Mary Manjikian's culturalist approach claims that the internet is neither inherently helpful, nor inherently threatening. Rather, its role and the dangers it poses may be understood differently by different societies.



Mary Manjikian is an Assistant Professor in the Robertson School of Government, Regent University, USA. She has served as a Visiting Professor at the College of William and Mary and at the Joint Forces Staff College in Norfolk. A former foreign service officer, Mary has also served as Assistant Press Attaché in The Hague, Netherlands; Assistant Cultural Attaché for Educational Affairs in Moscow, Russia, and Press Attaché in Sofia, Bulgaria.



Contents: Preface; Risk assessment, power and the politics of fear; Psychiatry, antipsychiatry and internet addiction; Critical psychiatry and the construction of internet addiction; Biosecurity and the securitization of internet addiction; Internet addiction and the assault on Chinese values; Bibliography; Index.
