Book synopsis

These are 23 collected interviews with the renowned French philosopher and cultural commentator, Jean Baudrillard. Jean Baudrillard (1929-2007) was one of the world's most influential, celebrated and controversial thinkers. This new collection gathers 23 highly insightful yet previously difficult to find interviews, ranging over topics as diverse as art, war, technology, globalisation, terrorism and the fate of humanity. From familiar themes to the less well understood aspects of his thought, these interviews give you an overview of Baudrillard's ideas - without the jargon. Read as Baudrillard himself discusses, explains and elaborates on his ideas, making this collection essential for understanding many of his other works. It is the first book of collected interviews with Baudrillard for over two decades. It is valuable to new and seasoned readers of Baudrillard and to students and academics in philosophy, sociology, literary theory, art history, architecture, film and photography, cultural studies, human geography and media studies. It gathers many unknown and otherwise unavailable pieces into one volume.
