Description

"Life in Fragments" is a continuation of the themes and motifs explored in Zygmunt Bauman's study, "Postmodern Ethics" (Blackwell, 1993). Our new era, Bauman argues, may yet prove to represent a dawning, rather than a twilight for ethics, emancipated from the false consciousness entailed by modernity. He develops these themes further in this commentary on postmodern ethics and moralities.

Author Biography:

Zygmunt Bauman (19 November 1925 – 9 January 2017) was a Polish sociologist and philosopher. He was driven out of Poland by a political purge in 1968 engineered by the Communist government of the Polish People's Republic and forced to give up his Polish citizenship to move to Israel. Three years after he moved to the United Kingdom. He resided in England from 1971 and became Professor of Sociology at the University of Leeds, later Emeritus. Bauman was one of the world's most eminent social theorists, writing on issues as diverse as modernity and the Holocaust, postmodern consumerism and liquid modernity.
