Resumé

The aim of the book 'The Classifying Society' is to show how digital systems classify us every day - from music and searches to politics and social ties. The book explains how classification shapes knowledge, power, and decisions. The expected outcome is a new understanding of classification as a political force that both reinforces inequalities and sheds light on democracy’s challenges.
