«La era del vacío» is Gilles Lipovetsky's essay on contemporary individualism, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (224 pages, in Spanish).
Lipovetsky analyzes postmodern society as a cultural mutation: individualism becomes the historical state of advanced democracies and the individual manages their life à la carte. He examines attitudes such as apathy, indifference and desertion, the replacement of conviction by seduction, the generalization of humor and narcissism as a new organization of personality, along with the exhaustion of the avant-garde in culture.
The book belongs to Anagrama's Compactos collection, where it is number 324. Translated from French, the work is a classic of contemporary thought.
Recommended for readers interested in philosophy, sociology and cultural analysis of postmodernity and individualism.
Gilles Lipovetsky is a French philosopher, writer, and sociologist.
