Professor Beverley Skeggs

Entitled “Understanding grey matter: tracking the trackers and unearthing Facebook’s experiments with different forms of personhood”, Professor Beverley Skeggs will explore the concept of personhood, its interrelation with capitalism and property, and how this “reshaping” converts into capital gain.

For the full programme, and to register for  the event, please click here or contact FSHM Communications Team.

Professor Skeggs will draw on a recent ESRC research project (using software developed by Simon Yuill) to detail how this reshaping of personhood is integral to a new regime of accumulation based on profit without production.
