This essay by Alasdair MacIntyre was a powerful reminder that I should get back to Platform & Agency. The main argument of the book is that we have to understand platformisation as changing the parameters of the biographical process which MacIntyre describes here in a philosophical register:
We learn what place in our individual and common lives to give to each of a variety of goods, that is, only through a discipline of learning, during which we discover what we have hitherto cared for too much and what too little and, as we correct our inclinations, discover also that our judgments are informed by an at first inchoate but gradually more and more determinate conception of a final good, of an end, one in the light of which every other good finds its due place, an end indeed final but not remote, one to which here and now our actions turn out to be increasingly directed as we learn to give no more and no less than their due to other goods.
