It is clear that we are living in a post-modern age. The explosion of the social, the dissolution of the political: the individual is king. This book carefully sounds out this change, investigating the most important traits of today’s world, so far removed from the rebellion and dissent characteristic of the age of expansion. New attitudes, a new organisation of personality, a new state of culture; Lipovetsky attributes these phenomena to the same factor: individualism is the new historical state of advanced democratic states, which will define the post-modern era. This book has become a classic of contemporary thought. / Se ha afirmado que estamos en la era posmoderna. Estallido de lo social, disolución de lo político: el individuo es el rey y maneja su existencia a la carta... Este libro ausculta esta mutación, investigando los rasgos significativos de los tiempos actuales, tan alejados de la rebelión y el disentimiento característicos de los años de expansión. Nuevas actitudes: apatía, indiferencia, deserción, el principio de seducción sustituyendo al principio de convicción, generalización de la actitud humorística. Nueva organización de la personalidad: narcisismo, nuevas modalidades de la relación social, marcadas en particular por la reducción de la violencia y la transformación última de sus manifestaciones. Nuevo estado de la cultura, caracterizado por el agotamiento y derrumbe de lo que ha significado la vanguardia durante el último siglo. Gilles Lipovetsky atribuye el conjunto de estos fenómenos a un mismo factor: el individualismo es el nuevo estado histórico propio de las sociedades democráticas avanzadas, que definiría precisamente la era posmoderna. Un libro que se ha convertido en un clásico del pensamiento contemporáneo.
