Summary

Rosi Braidotti: The Posthuman

Rosie Braidotti's book is a comprehensive guide to the posthuman age. This important study, without intending to indicate ready-made goals, points to the possibility of multiple lines of thought that require a combination of "critical resistance and creative alternatives" to consider modern, globally connected and technologically mediated societies. Rosie Brydotti builds a theoretical composition of the "posthuman" by considering the complex perspectives of Life "beyond" Self, species, death and theory. The book opens with four "vignettes", that is, with four "examples of contradictions offered by our posthumous historical state", and in the following there are no guidelines pointing to the non-naturalistic structure of the posthuman subject. The fourfold contrapuntal composition in the theoretical work of Rosie Brydotti develops into a kind of rivalry with the imitative, canonized and homogenized idea of "Man".

Rosi Braidotti: Philosopher and theoretician of feminism. Under the strong influence of philosopher Gilles Deleuze, but also prominent French feminist Lucy Irigare, she introduced postmodern feminism into the information age by considering cyberspace, prostheses and the materiality of difference. In his works, he discusses how ideas about gender differences can affect our sense of difference between humans and animals and man and machine. Braidotti presents arguments for an alternative view of subjectivity, ethics and emancipation, while strongly opposing the principles of liberal individualism.
