In this seminal work, Zygmunt Bauman analyzes how the nature of poverty has changed in contemporary society. While in the past poverty was intrinsically linked to unemployment and the lack of work, today it is defined primarily through consumption levels and the ability to participate in a market-oriented culture. The author explores the social consequences of this shift, examining how individual identities and life projects are now built around consumption, offering a necessary reflection on the welfare state, marginality, and the new challenges facing modern society regarding work and social exclusion.
