Resonance

A Sociology of Our Relationship to the World

by Hartmut Rosa ...

Translated by James C. Wagner ...

The pace of modern life is undoubtedly speeding up, yet this acceleration does not seem to have made us any more happy or content. If acceleration is the problem, then the solution, argues Hartmut Rosa in this major new work, lies in 'resonance'. The quality of a human life cannot be measured simply in terms of resources, options and moments of happiness: instead, we must consider our relationship ... Read more

The Uncontrollability of the World

by Hartmut Rosa ...

Translated by James C. Wagner ...

The driving cultural force of that form of life we call ‘modern’ is the desire to make the world controllable. Yet it is only in encountering the uncontrollable that we really experience the world – only then do we feel touched, moved and alive. A world that is fully known, in which everything has been planned and mastered, would be a dead world.Our lives are played out on the border between what ... Read more

Democracy Needs Religion
