«Der überflüssige Mensch» is the philosophical essay by Ilija Trojanow, published by Residenz Verlag in paperback (96 pages, in German).
«Der überflüssige Mensch» analyzes human dignity in late capitalism, where those who neither produce nor consume are deemed superfluous. Trojanow questions the discourse on overpopulation and examines climate change, neoliberal employment policies and media catastrophes, from a humanist defense of every individual.
The work was published in 2013 with the full title «Der überflüssige Mensch: Unruhe bewahren» and was nominated for the Tractatus-Preis in 2014.
For readers interested in social criticism, political philosophy and debates on contemporary capitalism.
Ilija Trojanow, also transliterated as Ilya Troyanov, is a Bulgarian-German writer, translator and publisher.
