In this book, translated into English for the first time, Lelio
Demichelis takes on a modern perspective of the concept/process of
alienation. This concept-much more profound and widespread today
than first described and denounced by Marx-has largely been
forgotten and erased. Using the characters of Narcissus, Pygmalion
and Prometheus, the author reinterprets and updates Marx,
Nietzsche, Anders, Foucault and, in particular, critical theory and
the Frankfurt School views on an administered society (where
everything is automated and engineered, manifest today in
algorithms, AI, machine learning and social networking) showing
that, in a world where old and new forms of alienation come
together, man is increasingly led to delegate (i.e. alienate)
sovereignty, freedom, responsibility and the awareness of being
alive.
