Description
The notion that 21st-century people believe in something is self-evident. Each of us has political, religious, and social notions and beliefs - a simple given of contemporary life. However, the very notion of belief is now being questioned. This analysis explores how contemporary sites of belief, such as religion, politics, and popular culture, have been upended and supplanted. It examines the impact of digital culture and contemporary debt relations on our understanding of existence. The book delves into the ideas of thinkers like Guy Debord and Althusser, and considers how the dominance of spectacular life has changed the way we think about ideology and critical debate. The result is a thought-provoking exploration of how our world has become increasingly dependent on consumption and having over being.
