There have been claims that meaninglessness has become epidemic in
the contemporary world. One perceived consequence of this is that
people increasingly turn against both society and the political
establishment with little concern for the content (or lack of
content) that might follow. Most often, encounters with
meaninglessness and nothingness are seen as troubling. "Meaning" is
generally seen as being a cornerstone of the human condition, as
that which we strive towards. This was famously explored by Viktor
Frankl in Man's Search for Meaning in which he showed how even in
the direst of situations individuals will often seek to find a
purpose in life. But what, then, is at stake when groups of people
negate this position? What exactly goes on inside this apparent
turn towards nothing, in the engagement with meaninglessness? And
what happens if we take the meaningless seriously as an empirical
fact?
