This dissertation coins the term algorithmic aspirational control (AAC) to describe an emergent configuration of algorithmic control. Drawing on Michel Foucault’s analytical strategy of analyzing the process of problematization, the dissertation examines the dilemmas emerging when managers use computer-programmed procedures to direct workers toward organizational goals through targeted algorithmic recommendations and other forms of digital nudging.
