Description
Moral Blindness: The Loss of Sensitivity in Liquid Modernity
By Zygmunt Bauman and Leonidas Donskis, Polity Press
This thought-provoking analysis explores how everyday insensitivity to the suffering of others can reveal itself in our normal lives. The authors examine the concept of adiaphora, which implies a moral numbness, and argue that it is a key feature of our contemporary liquid-modern world.
