Modernity and Ambivalence

ISBN: 9780745612423 出版年：2013 页码：298 Zygmunt Bauman Wiley

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.
