  • The Disappearance of Rituals

    A Topology of the Present

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    Untrammelled neoliberalism and the inexorable force of production have produced a 21st century crisis of community: a narcissistic cult of authenticity and mass turning-inward are among the pathologies engendered by it. We are individuals afloat in an atomised society, where the loss of the symbolic structures inherent in ritual behaviour has led to overdependence on the contingent to steer ... Leer más

  • The Crisis of Narration

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    Narratives produce the ties that bind us. They create community, eliminate contingency and anchor us in being. And yet in our contemporary information society, where everything has become arbitrary and random, storytelling becomes storyselling and narratives lose their binding force.Whereas narratives create community, storytelling brings forth only a fleeting community – the community of ...

  • Vita Contemplativa

    In Praise of Inactivity

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    In our busy and hurried lives, we are losing the ability to be inactive. Human existence becomes fully absorbed by activity – even leisure, treated as a respite from work, becomes part of the same logic. Intense life today means first of all more performance or more consumption. We have forgotten that it is precisely inactivity, which does not produce anything, that represents an intense and ...

  • The Scent of Time

    A Philosophical Essay on the Art of Lingering

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    In his philosophical reflections on the art of lingering, acclaimed cultural theorist Byung-Chul Han argues that the value we attach today to the vita activa is producing a crisis in our sense of time. Our attachment to the vita activa creates an imperative to work which degrades the human being into a labouring animal, an animal laborans. At the same time, the hyperactivity which characterizes ...

  • Non-things

    Upheaval in the Lifeworld

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    We no longer inhabit earth and dwell under the sky: these are being replaced by Google Earth and the Cloud. The terrestrial order is giving way to a digital order, the world of things is being replaced by a world of non-things – a constantly expanding ‘infosphere’ of information and communication which displaces objects and obliterates any stillness and calmness in our lives.Byung-Chul Han’s ...

  • The Price of the World

    A Global History of Capitalism

    de Friedrich Lenger ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    Over the last 500 years, capitalism has produced a world that is highly interdependent and at the same time highly asymmetrical. These asymmetries were often established by violent means and are in many cases vigorously defended to this day. In his ambitious global history of capitalism, Friedrich Lenger charts the course of these developments, which have left no one unaffected – from the ... Leer más

  • In Praise of the Earth

    A Journey into the Garden

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    The earth is not a dead, mute landscape but an eloquent, living being. Sometimes it just takes a spade, a packet of seeds, and a pair of sturdy boots to realize it.The philosopher Byung-Chul Han spent three springs, summers, autumns, and winters in his secret garden in Berlin, devoting himself to daily gardening in all weathers. For Han, gardening is a form of silent meditation, a lingering in ... Leer más

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    A spectre is haunting us: fear. We are constantly confronted with apocalyptic scenarios: pandemics, world war, the climate catastrophe. Images of the end of the world and the end of human civilization are conjured up with ever greater urgency. Anxiously, we face a bleak future. Preoccupied with crisis management, life becomes a matter of survival.But it is precisely at such moments of fear and ... Leer más

  • The Palliative Society

    Pain Today

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    Our societies today are characterized by a universal algophobia: a generalized fear of pain. We strive to avoid all painful conditions – even the pain of love is treated as suspect. This algophobia extends into society: less and less space is given to conflicts and controversies that might prompt painful discussions. It takes hold of politics too: politics becomes a palliative politics that is ... Leer más

  • Infocracy

    Digitization and the Crisis of Democracy

    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    The tsunami of information unleashed by digitization is threatening to overwhelm us, drowning us in a sea of frenzied communication and disrupting many spheres of social life, including politics. Election campaigns are now being waged as information wars with bots and troll armies, and democracy is degenerating into infocracy.In this new book, Byung-Chul Han argues that infocracy is the new form ...

  • Hyperculture

    Culture and Globalisation

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    In the wake of globalization, cultural forms of expression have become increasingly detached from their places of origin, circulating in a hyper-domain of culture where there is no real difference anymore between indigenous and foreign, near and far, the familiar and the exotic. Heterogeneous cultural contents are brought together side by side, like the fusion food that makes free use of all that ... Leer más

  • Capitalism and the Death Drive

    de Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traducido por Daniel Steuer ...
    What we call growth today is in fact a tumorous growth, a cancerous proliferation which is disrupting the social organism. These tumours endlessly metastasize and grow with an inexplicable, deadly vitality. At a certain point this growth is no longer productive, but rather destructive. Capitalism passed this point long ago. Its destructive forces cause not only ecological and social catastrophes ... Leer más
