Liquid Love

On the Frailty of Human Bonds

by Zygmunt Bauman ...

Liquid Love: On the Frailty of Human BondsThis book is about the central figure of our contemporary, 'liquid modern' times – the man or woman with no bonds, and particularly with none of the fixed or durable bonds that would allow the effort of self-definition and self-assertion to come to a rest. Having no permanent bonds, the denizen of our liquid modern society must tie whatever bonds they can ... Read more

Liquid Modernity

by Zygmunt Bauman ...

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 ... Read more

Modernity and Its Outcasts

It is an unavoidable side-effect of economic progress and the quest for order which is characteristic of modernity.As long as large parts of the world remained wholly or partly unaffected by modernization, they were ...

Moral Blindness

The Loss of Sensitivity in Liquid Modernity

by Zygmunt Bauman, Leonidas Donskis ...

Evil is not confined to war or to circumstances in which people are acting under extreme duress. Today it more frequently reveals itself in the everyday insensitivity to the suffering of others, in the inability or refusal to understand them and in the casual turning away of one’s ethical gaze. Evil and moral blindness lurk in what we take as normality and in the triviality and banality of ... Read more

Retrotopia

We have long since lost our faith in the idea that human beings could achieve human happiness in some future ideal state—a state that Thomas More, writing five centuries ago, tied to a topos, a fixed place, a land, an island, a sovereign state under a wise and benevolent ruler. But while we have lost our faith in utopias of all hues, the human aspiration that made this vision so compelling has not ... Read more
