This concept, which is more profound and widespread today than initially described and criticized by Marx, has been largely forgotten and erased. Using the characters of Narcissus, Pygmalion, and Prometheus, the author reinterprets and updates Marx, Nietzsche, Anders, Foucault, and critical theory, particularly the views of the Frankfurt School on an administered society where everything is automated and engineered, as seen in algorithms, AI, machine learning, and social networking. Through these characters, Demichelis demonstrates that in a world where old and new forms of alienation converge, man is increasingly led to delegate sovereignty, freedom, responsibility, and awareness of being alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031073878\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lelio Demichelis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":45822451187962,"sku":"9783031073878","price":91.62,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1714158444654_book.jpg?v=1714420597","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/marx-alienation-and-technocapitalism-9783031073878","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
