The Californian Ideology

“The Californian Ideology” is an essay written by Richard Barbook and Andy Cameron. The essay appears to be a response to the path the digital era was taking in the early 90s. In the essay, the two writers cover arguments that we will see together.

There is an emerging global orthodoxy concerning the relation between society, technology and politics. This orthodoxy is called Californian Ideology, in honour of where it originated. The Californian Ideology is a mix of cybernetics, free market economics and counter-culture libertarianism. This new faith has been embraced by many, including the President of the United States.

Not sure if everyone is familiar with a man called Marshal McLuhan. How could you not know him! Got it, brief parenthesis.

Marshall McLuhan was a Canadian communications theorist and educator, whose main quote is “the medium is the message” which summarized his view of the powerful influence television, computers and other electronic devices had on shaping styles of thinking other than people.

Where were we? Oh right...

In the 60s, McLuhan thought that the power of big business and big government would be overthrown by the empowering effects new technology had on individuals. Many hippies were influenced by him and believed that technological progress would turn their non-conformist libertarian principles into a political fact. They trusted that the convergence of media, computing and telecommunications would result in electronic direct democracy - the elecontronic agora - in which everyone would be able to express their opinion without the fear of being censored.

The US president did not like this situation.

During the 70s and 80s, many fundamental advances in personal computing had been made by people that were influenced by the technological optimism of the new left and the counter-culture. Believe it or not, but in the 90s, some ex-hippies became owners and managers of high-tech corporations. These corporations remain dependent on key people who can research and create original products. These skilled workers form the so-called virtual class — the techno-intelligentsia of cognitive scientists, engineers and other communications specialists. Since these workers are both a privileged part of the labour forces and also heirs of the radical ideas of the community media activists, the Californian Ideology reflects the disciplines of market economics and the freedoms of hippie artisanship. This “crazy” hybrid is only made prossible through a universal belief in technological determinism.

The Californian Ideology, which has McLuhan as its patron saint, has emerged from an unexpected collision of right-wing neo-liberalism, counter-culture radicalism and technological determinism — a hybrid ideology with all its ambiguities and contradictions. These contradiction are pronounced in the opposing visions of the future:

On one side, the anti-corporate purity of the New Left has been preserved by the advocates of the virtual community. According to their “guru” (Howard Rheingold) the values of the counter-cultures are shaping the development of new information technology. This brings community activists to be able to use new media to replace corporate capitalism and big government with high-tech economy

On the other side, the West Coast ideologues embraced the laissez-faire ideology of their enemy.

With this version of the Californian Ideology, each member of the virtual class is promised the opportunity to become a successful high-tech entrepeneur.

In 1994, with the victory of Gingrich’s party in in the legislative elections, the right-wing version of the Californian Ideology is in ascendance. Thus, the technologies of the computer and the Net were invented with the aid of massive state subsidies. The history of the internet contradicts the tenets of the neoliberal ideologues. The Net’s development was almost completely dependent on the American federal government. At the same time, many of the key Net programs and applications were invented either by hobbyists or professionals that were working in their spare times.

Despite the central role played by public intervention in developing hypermedia, the Californian Ideology is an anti-statist dogma.

The ascendency of this dogma is a result of the failure of renewal in the United States during the late 60s and early 70s. Although ideologies of California celebrate the libertarian individualism of the hippies, they never discuss the political/social demands of the counter-culture. Individual freedom cannot be achieved by rebelling against the system BUT through submission to the natural law of technological progress and free market.

Already back then, the Californian Ideology feared that technologies were turning into the machines of dominance.

Techno-utopians, though, are of the idea that it is possible to obtain slave-like la our from inanimate machines; but this factor will never cancel the need of humans to invent, build and maintain the machines in the first place.

Going on with their essay, Barbook and Cameron, start talking about entering the modern era.

At the beginning, West Coast hippies were the key role in creating our contemporary vision of social liberation. As a consequence, feminism, drug culture, gay liberation and ethnic identity have stopped being marginal issues. Incredible to say but, in this way California became the center of the ideology which denies the relevance of these new social subjects.

“The original promise of the Californian Ideology, was that the computers would liberate us from the old forms of political controls, and we would become Randian heroes, in control of our own destiny. Instead, today, we feel the opposite—that we are helpless components in a global system— a system that is controlled by a rigid logic that we are powerless to challenge or to change.”

Misunderstanding the internet/ the Californian ideology (Com 311)

Back when the internet was invented, people who knew how to use the internet were viewed as smart,and cool., but now it is a basic skill that everybody must have. According to  'Curran James, and Des Freedman’s “Misunderstanding the internet”  the internet has a come a very long way. It has developed over the years, and it also changed how people think. The authors explain and elaborate on how the internet started from being a very exclusive tool that was only used by the US military forces in 1969 during the cold war to withstand the soviet’s union attack the 2000, when the web 2.0 was invented, and people had the opportunity to create their own content on the internet. In the picture below are the computer scientists at BBN technologies who created the ARPANET, which eventually developed into the internet we know today (source: https://allthatsinteresting.com/internet-history)

 Obviously, a lot happened between these two dates for the internet to be transformed and to transform people lives and mindsets. In the 1970s and 80s the internet was given to academics. in 1991 the commercial ban on the internet was lifted, since then the internet has made vast improvements in being a commercial place,and advertisements started being placed on the internet, which a new thing tot he people;however, the downside of the the internet at that time was that websites track activities and websites try to collect data about people as much as they can, all for targeted advertisements. This has ruined the concept of a free, private, empty of censorship place, where people can express whatever they want, because everybody know they are being watched.

While James and Freedman only focused on listing the history of the internet, and explaining all the main events that led tot he transformation of the internet in details, and how it affected the culture and the society, Barbrook and Cameroon’s “The Californian ideology” focused at the internet. but from a cultural point of view, because they write, how the internet has shaped a new culture in California around the 1960s. Barbook and Cameroon’s also focus on explaining that there were two groups of people at the time the “hippies”, people who represent themselves as radical , but who were deeply conservative, and they were rebellious and they did drugs. The other group, the “yuppies” , people who are young, come from the middle-class, and has a job  in the city. In the picture below are Steve jobs and Steve Wozniak  (source: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/jul/08/steve-wozniakr-steve-jobs-apple)

These two groups of people may have very different lifestyles or ideologies, but  they both advocate for libertarian-ism, which not wanting the state to control the market, because the hippies want freedom of expression and the yuppies wanted to have freedom of investment.. The article also explored how both groups were politically different, because the yuppies were right-wing and the hippies were left-wing;however, they both came together to focus on their main goal, which was freedom. On may 15th 1969, Ronald Reagan ordered the police to end a protest near the campus of Berkeley. (See picture below, source :https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/flashback-ronald-reagan-and-the-berkeley-peoples-park-riots-114873/)

This tension only motivated the hippie's to work more towards their goal, showing the people how the internet will liberate them and give them freedom from the constraints of society
