Abstract
The network has become our dominant ideology. There has been a gross failure to acknowledge the contingency and historicity of networks. The network is a grand narrative, a meta-rhetoric and a new image of thought – a ‘reticular empiricism’ which is also a ‘reticular pessimism’ because it constitutes a foreclosure of utopian thought and a constraint on political agency in the digital age.
