Jamie Bartlett will talk about his new book The Dark Net, an exploration of some of the net's most shocking and unexplored subcultures. This includes the worlds of uncensored drugs markets; internet trolling; neo-Nazis, child pornography, bitcoin and crypto-anarchy. He will examine how people behave under the conditions of real or perceived anonymity online, and what it means for society today.

Jamie Bartlett is the Director of The Centre for the Analysis of Social Media, a collaboration between Demos and the University of Sussex. His work focuses on the ways in which social media and modern communications and technology are changing political and social movements, with a special emphasis on terrorism and radical political movements. Jamie's recent book 'The Dark Net' about internet subcultures was published in August 2014 by Random House. He is also a writer for the Daily Telegraph on technology.
