La grande migrazione online. Costi e opportunità

In the last three decades, many human activities have migrated online: some completely, others only partially – even if the latter were strongly influenced by the digital rev- olution too. Other activities have kept their physicality while gaining a digital extension, with variable and unprec- edented results. As any social mutation, this is a gradual process characterised by great achievements as well as by important failures; a process changing both our life and global power politics. Under this respect, March 2020 represents a turning point: by experiencing the first so-called “lock- down”, in a few weeks the physical life of millions of Italians was transferred online – partially or even entirely. What exactly happened? Who succeeded in this migration, who failed, and why? Which were, are, and will be the conse- quences? Have we learned anything? And, most impor- tantly: eighteen months after the beginning of this Great Online Migration, how do we want to shape our future?
