Liquid Modernity
«Abandon all hope of totality, future as well as past, you who enter the world of liquid modernity».
When Bauman coined it, the metaphor of liquidity marked our days and entered common speech as a notion for describing the kind of modernity we are living in. An individualised; privatised, uncertain, flexible, vulnerable modernity, where an unprecedented liberty balances an ambiguous sort of joy and a craving, insatiable desire.
Liquid Modernity is a modern classic and a bestseller in Italy and internationally.
