Book, Moral blindness: loss of sensitivity in liquid modernity[LS]
Descrição
Language: Brazilian Portuguese. A brilliant analysis of the new evil that plagues our time and numbs us to the suffering of others. In our days, evil and ethical myopia are hidden in what we consider common and banal in everyday life. Violence and disasters have become so constant and so naturalized that we are calloused to so much inhumanity. And this is just one of the symptoms of this moral blindness that characterizes our societies. With originality — and like an epistolary dialogue between friends — this contemporary evil is analyzed by Zygmunt Bauman and the philosopher and political scientist Leonidas Donskis. A fundamental read of great interest to all those concerned with the most profound changes that silently shape men's lives in liquid modernity.
