Beskrivning
On Critical Postmedia and Korea: Philosophy, Technology, Literature was curated for the simple reason that a shift has taken place in orientation towards the future. Not long ago, the West looked to Japan as charting a path to a new form of society, with a unique dynamic of media, economics, technology, culture, and politics. Yet, across the Sea of Japan, a phase change has occurred since the bursting of the economic bubble on the Japanese archipelago. Now, we look to South Korea for a new vision of the future and a fresh perspective on media and technology. A new era beckons—a Korean era! Therefore, it’s imperative to understand this gleaming model of hyper-accelerant advanced industrial capitalism and its soft and hard power effects. This collection thus embraces South Korea’s transformation, positioning it as a key architect of future societies.

In their insightful critique of contemporary society's obsession with productivity and positivity, the authors skillfully navigate through intricate philosophical terrains, drawing on a diverse array of thinkers from Han Byung-Chul to Deleuze and Stiegler. Through meticulous analyses, the authors challenge the prevailing narratives surrounding desire, attention, and societal progress, urging readers to confront the existential crises of our time. Ultimately, this thought-provoking work serves as a clarion call for a radical reimagining of desire—one that embraces a deeper, more nuanced engagement with the self and the world.
