Bernard Stiegler's work on the intimate relations between the human
and the technical have made him one of the most important voices to
have emerged in French philosophy in the last decade. At the same
time both an accessible summation of that work and a continuation
of it, "The Re-Enchantment of the World" advances a critique of
consumer capitalism that draws on Freud and Marx to construct an
utterly contemporary analysis of our time. The book explores the
cognitive, affective, social and economic effects of the
'proletarianization' of the consumer in late capitalism and the
resulting destruction of the consumer's "savoir-vivre. "Reflecting
the collective work of his activist organisation, "Ars
Industrialis," Stiegler here sets forth an alternative path to that
of 'industrial populism', one that appeals to the force of the
human spirit."The Re-Enchantment of the World" also includes the
manifesto of "Ars Industrialis" and an account of the
organisation's 2005 summit in Tunis.
