SUMMARY:Armin Nassehi: What problem does digitalisation solve?
DESCRIPTION:Digital technology has revolutionised the world in just a few y
 ears: our relationships\, our work and even the results of elections – e
 verything seems to follow completely different rules. For sociologist Armi
 n Nassehi\, a certain technology is only successful if it solves a fundame
 ntal problem. So if digitalisation succeeds in unfolding its potential for
  change\, the question is: What problem does digitisation solve? Among oth
 er things\, the answer will point out that modern society can be called "d
 igital" in a peculiar way even before the advance of computer technology.\
