Produktinformationen zu „Liquid Modernity (ePub)“
In this new book, Bauman examines how we have moved away from a
'heavy' and 'solid', hardware-focused modernity to a 'light' and
'liquid', software-based modernity. This passage, he argues, has
brought profound change to all aspects of the human condition. The
new remoteness and un-reachability of global systemic structure
coupled with the unstructured and under-defined, fluid state of the
immediate setting of life-politics and human togetherness, call for
the rethinking of the concepts and cognitive frames used to narrate
human individual experience and their joint history.
This book is dedicated to this task. Bauman selects five of the
basic concepts which have served to make sense of shared human life
- emancipation, individuality, time/space, work and community - and
traces their successive incarnations and changes of meaning.
Liquid Modernity concludes the analysis undertaken in
Bauman's two previous books Globalization: The Human
Consequences and In Search of Politics. Together these
volumes form a brilliant analysis of the changing conditions of
social and political life by one of the most original thinkers
writing today.
