Opis

Self Technologies is a work that explores how people construct and transform their identity through everyday and reflexive practices in contemporary society. Based on the concepts of philosopher Michel Foucault, this book analyzes how disciplines such as education, health, spirituality and consumption influence our sense of self. Throughout its pages, the text reveals how these social technologies not only shape our decisions, but also our way of inhabiting the world, inviting us to reflect on our relationship with power, freedom and personal ethics. A profound analysis that inspires the reader to embark on a path of self-knowledge and transformation in search of a more conscious and authentic life.
