Life in fragments : essays in postmodern morality

"Life in Fragments" is a continuation of the themes and motifs explored in Zygmunt Bauman's study, "Postmodern Ethics" (Blackwell, 1993). Our new era, Bauman argues, may yet prove to represent a dawning, rather than a twilight for ethics, emancipated from the false consciousness entailed by modernity. He develops these themes further in this commentary on postmodern ethics and moralities.
