The modern world has moved beyond the Information Age and entered a new era of industry, automation, and 'intelligence.' How might the law preserve human value in the wake of rapid societal transformation? Is the field even equipped to do so? Humans in Exile offers a unique, interdisciplinary approach to addressing the societal stress and existential threats caused by these rapid developments, bringing the reader to the essential point of what it is to be human. The book reveals the historical and theoretical ties between science, technology, and government and demonstrates how scientism and technological determinism have steered legal decision-making in the wrong direction. The book concludes by providing an array of examples of law in action to address cutting edge challenges, such as surveillance, AI, and toxic waste. Humans in Exile posits that privacy is not dead and humans remain valued and resilient under the law.
