  • The Crisis of Narration

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    Narratives produce the ties that bind us. They create community, eliminate contingency and anchor us in being. And yet in our contemporary information society, where everything has become arbitrary and random, storytelling becomes storyselling and narratives lose their binding force.Whereas narratives create community, storytelling brings forth only a fleeting community – the community of ...

  • Vita Contemplativa

    In Praise of Inactivity

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    In our busy and hurried lives, we are losing the ability to be inactive. Human existence becomes fully absorbed by activity – even leisure, treated as a respite from work, becomes part of the same logic. Intense life today means first of all more performance or more consumption. We have forgotten that it is precisely inactivity, which does not produce anything, that represents an intense and ...

  • Non-things

    Upheaval in the Lifeworld

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    We no longer inhabit earth and dwell under the sky: these are being replaced by Google Earth and the Cloud. The terrestrial order is giving way to a digital order, the world of things is being replaced by a world of non-things – a constantly expanding "infosphere" of information and communication which displaces objects and obliterates any stillness and calmness in our lives.Byung-Chul Han's ...

  • Hyperculture

    Culture and Globalisation

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    In the wake of globalization, cultural forms of expression have become increasingly detached from their places of origin, circulating in a hyper-domain of culture where there is no real difference anymore between indigenous and foreign, near and far, the familiar and the exotic. Heterogeneous cultural contents are brought together side by side, like the fusion food that makes free use of all that ... En savoir plus

  • The Disappearance of Rituals

    A Topology of the Present

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    Untrammelled neoliberalism and the inexorable force of production have produced a 21st century crisis of community: a narcissistic cult of authenticity and mass turning-inward are among the pathologies engendered by it. We are individuals afloat in an atomised society, where the loss of the symbolic structures inherent in ritual behaviour has led to overdependence on the contingent to steer ... En savoir plus

  • The Palliative Society

    Pain Today

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    Our societies today are characterized by a universal algophobia: a generalized fear of pain. We strive to avoid all painful conditions – even the pain of love is treated as suspect. This algophobia extends into society: less and less space is given to conflicts and controversies that might prompt painful discussions. It takes hold of politics too: politics becomes a palliative politics that is ... En savoir plus

  • Infocracy

    Digitization and the Crisis of Democracy

    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    The tsunami of information unleashed by digitization is threatening to overwhelm us, drowning us in a sea of frenzied communication and disrupting many spheres of social life, including politics. Election campaigns are now being waged as information wars with bots and troll armies, and democracy is degenerating into infocracy.In this new book, Byung-Chul Han argues that infocracy is the new form ...

  • The Spirit of Hope

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    A spectre is haunting us: fear. We are constantly confronted with apocalyptic scenarios: pandemics, world war, the climate catastrophe. Images of the end of the world and the end of human civilization are conjured up with ever greater urgency. Anxiously, we face a bleak future. Preoccupied with crisis management, life becomes a matter of survival.But it is precisely at such moments of fear and ... En savoir plus

  • The Tonality of Thought

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    In a lecture given in 2023, Byung-Chul Han likened his thinking to music: like the Goldberg Variations, his books present variations on themes, though in his case the variations are articulated in the form of fundamental concepts. He also explained that his thinking is rooted in German Romanticism and Far Eastern thought: 'If I may compare my thinking with a fruit, then its skin and flesh are ... En savoir plus

  • The Scent of Time

    A Philosophical Essay on the Art of Lingering

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    In his philosophical reflections on the art of lingering, acclaimed cultural theorist Byung-Chul Han argues that the value we attach today to the vita activa is producing a crisis in our sense of time. Our attachment to the vita activa creates an imperative to work which degrades the human being into a labouring animal, an animal laborans. At the same time, the hyperactivity which characterizes ...

  • Capitalism and the Death Drive

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    What we call growth today is in fact a tumorous growth, a cancerous proliferation which is disrupting the social organism. These tumours endlessly metastasize and grow with an inexplicable, deadly vitality. At a certain point this growth is no longer productive, but rather destructive. Capitalism passed this point long ago. Its destructive forces cause not only ecological and social catastrophes ... En savoir plus

  • The Philosophy of Zen Buddhism

    par Byung-Chul Han ...
    Traduit par Daniel Steuer ...
    Zen Buddhism is a form of Mahâyâna Buddhism that originated in China and is strongly focused on meditation. It is characteristically sceptical towards language and distrustful of conceptual thought, which explains why Zen Buddhist sayings are so enigmatic and succinct. But despite Zen Buddhism's hostility towards theory and discourse, it is possible to reflect philosophically on Zen Buddhism and ... En savoir plus
