Book, Culture in the liquid modern world, A[LS]

One of the most brilliant and influential thinkers today, Zygmunt Bauman recalls the historical displacements of the concept of culture and examines its destiny in a world marked by the new and powerful forces of globalization, migration and the warlike coexistence of populations. In our liquid-modern era, in which all hierarchies dissolve and individuals go from producers to consumers, culture is no longer human, but of groups, of ghettos, and the contemporary agenda places themes such as citizenship, human rights and coexistence. However - Bauman warns us -, more than fighting for the rights of difference, we should strive for the right to equality.
