This is an automatically translated description

Leonidas Donskis's critical study of postmodern anxiety, fear, indifference, obsessive attention seeking, and the disappearance of the boundaries of privacy and public space. The book offers a deep understanding of what its author calls a problematic identity, as well as the cultural canon, the weakened sense of belonging and the inflation of key political concepts. Combining political theory and cultural philosophy, the book exposes the tension between thinking and action, politics and literature, power and opposition in postmodern politics and culture. A polemical book by an Eastern European that raises the main questions of contemporary European cultural identity and political existence.
