Societies dominated by star ratings\, scores\, likes and lists are ra pidly emerging\, as data are collected on virtually every aspect of our li ves. The Covid-19 pandemic just fueled this trend. Steffen Mau offers a cr itical analysis of the growing importance of metrics\, data and indicators in describing and managing society. He demonstrates how metrics\, intende d to build trust and transparency\, changed our perception of value and st atus. Has data become a substitute for trust? Can data even undermine trus t? Jakub Samochowiec argues that as a society\, we systematically underest imate the trustworthiness of others. We therefore feel the need for contro l by quantification. In many cases this might not only be unnecessary but could also undermine our own trustworthiness. Speakers Steffen Mau Germany Professor of Macrosociology at Humboldt University of Berlin. Mau works i n the fields of comparative welfare research\, social inequality\, and Eur opean integration. In his most recent book “The Metric Society: On the Q uantification of the Social”\, Mau shows how metrics have become a form of social conditioning and how the rise of quantification has strengthened social hierarchies.
