Figures & Tables

Figure 1

Digital detox assemblage within the Swedish society contextComments: The figure shows how the assemblage of our digital detox experience is localised within the larger assemblage of digital disengagement, which in turn is located within the larger assemblage of Swedish society, in which digitalisation is seen as beneficial.
