Has civilization been a good idea? Zerzan doesn't think so. We may need this critical perspective, as the nature of civilization becomes clearer--and more frightening!
Este autor estadounidense es un anarquista, primitivista, filósofo y escritor cuya obra critica la civilización agrícola como intrínsecamente opresiva. Aboga por inspirarse en los modos de vida de los cazadores-recolectores para imaginar cómo podría ser una sociedad libre. Sus críticas abarcan temas como la domesticación, el lenguaje, el pensamiento simbólico (incluyendo las matemáticas y el arte) y el concepto de tiempo.
