این کتاب شامل مجموعه گفتگوهایی با مانوئل کاستلز استاد جامعه شناسی دانشگاه برکلی است.
هشت موضوع مختلف گفتگو شامل زندگی و آثار کاستلز، نوآوری، فضای جریان ها، سازمانها و جنبش های اجتماعی، هویت، سیاست و قدرت، دور دنیا و دنیای معرفت هستند.
کاستلز شناخت خوبی از تاریخ و فرهنگ کشورهای مختلف داره و مسائل رو خیلی عالی دسته بندی کرده. البته دیدگاههاش خیلی چپ هست که این در گفتگوی دور دنیا کاملا مشهوده.
از این میان، بخش هویت و تقسیم بندی سه گانه اش از هویت و همینطور سازمانها و جنبش های اجتماعیش برام جالب بود.
برای کسانی که کتاب عصر اطلاعاتش رو خوندن، بخش نوآوری و فضای جریان ها می تونه جالبتر باشه.
