In 'The Society of Disappointment', Gilles Lipovetsky, a prominent sociologist, offers a profound reflection on contemporary society through an extensive interview with Bertrand Richard. Lipovetsky contextualizes his intellectual formation, analyzes current trends in the society of abundance, and presents a moral ideology that allows us to understand his position in the face of current challenges. The author examines how dreams of progress have generated distrust in institutions and how consumer capitalism has become the main promise of happiness, despite its contradictions and enemies. This essay invites reflection on the unease and disappointment that characterize our time, as well as on possible paths towards a more just and sustainable social development.
Gilles Lipovetsky is a French philosopher, writer, and sociologist.
