Excerpt: /164/ Reading Club: Culture of Narcissism
from Bungacast · host Aufhebunga Bunga
This is a short sample. Full episode is available for subscribers at patreon.com/bungacast We re-evaluate Christopher Lasch's hugely influential and prescient The Culture of Narcissism. What conjunctural factors led Lasch to his insights, and to what extent are those still present? Lasch wrote during the collapse of postwar Fordist-Keynesian model – is it the collapse of neoliberalism today that makes the book so evocative? And if narcissism has only increased, does the book suggest any political ways-out?
