Philosophy and Consumer Culture

Description

This course investigates the social, historical and philosophical causes and consequences of technological consumer culture. It takes up the ageless questions concerning the meaning of life and puts them to an age unprecedented in its proximity to the possibility of human extinction. What does it mean to be human at a time when all things, including humanity, seem disposable?
