Ahlaki Körlük

The work you have here is one of the biggest proofs that Zygmunt Bauman is not a typical sociologist. In the words of Leonidas Donskis, Bauman is the philosopher of everyday life: “High-level theories, dreams and political visions, the anxieties and sufferings of the statistical unit of humanity, little men or women, harsh criticisms directed at the powers of the world with their razor sharpness and crushing cruelty, their annoying ideas, sociological analyzes of their futility, their exaggerated struggle for attention and popularity, their insensitivity and self-deception.” They all intertwine like a spider's perfectly woven web, taking the reader on a philosophical journey through daily life. Bauman's sociology is, above all, the sociology of imagination, feelings, human relations (love, friendship, helplessness, indifference, insensitivity) and the intimate experiences within them. As usual, Bauman shifts between discourses and sheds a sociological lens on one of today's most burning experiences. It examines the origins, consequences and experiences of our moral blindness. This blindness is thrown into our faces by going through advertisements, SMS messages, personal development life coaches, politicians, business people, politicians, Facebook comments and social media posts. And with a sociology that sometimes returns to the language of modern literature and philosophical classics. It's a great opportunity for readers who are considering some of our most pressing and current moral issues.
