Las condiciones de vida y los destinos de los habitantes del planeta están ahora entretejidos de manera cercana, intensa e íntima. Lo sepamos o no, todos ejercemos influencia en el destino de los demás. Vamos en el mismo barco -navegamos juntos o nos hundimos juntos. Y algo que nos une es la velocidad del cambio mundial. El término heredado para semejante proceso de cambio, obsesivamente compulsivo, ha sido el de "modernización". ( ) no reviews | add a review
Modern civilization, Bauman argues, promised to make our lives understandable and open to our control. This has not happened and today we no longer believe it ever will. In this book, now available in paperback, Bauman argues that our postmodern age is the time for reconciliation with ambivalence, we must learn how to live in an incurably ambiguous world.
