Abstract
In Im Schwarm. Ansichten des Digitalen Byung-Chul Han examines the current mismatch between the new requirements of the information society and the reification that power structures produce. The digital revolution operates a radical ontic disassociation by transforming the different forms of human grouping into a crowd or swarm incapable of articulating a solid common action over time. In this reflections I try, first, to explain the central aspects of Han’s work, then to critically review some of his postulates and finally to examine the Spanish translation published by Herder in 2014.
