Description

Vilém Flusser's Post-History is a thought-provoking exploration of our contemporary world and its implications for freedom. In this collection of essays, Flusser examines the concept of "program" as a dominant force in modern society, questioning whether it is possible to rebel against a predictable reality. Flusser argues that only malfunctioning programs and apparatus can allow for freedom, and that any future theory of political resistance must take into account this shift in worldview. This book brings Flusser's work to an anglophone readership for the first time, offering a unique perspective on the relationship between technology, politics, and human experience. Through twenty essays, Flusser reminds us that our understanding of freedom is deeply tied to our understanding of the world around us. Post-History is a challenging and thought-provoking work that challenges readers to consider the implications of a programmed reality for our concept of freedom.
