Peter King

The Antimodern Condition (eBook, PDF)

An Argument Against Progress

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The antimodern condition is where we recognise that we dwell within traditions, which may evolve and change, but which keep us within the bounds of what is known and what works. This book takes a cross-disciplinary approach, integrating ideas from politics, philosophy, social theory and architecture to present an alternative to progress and other modern concepts.
