Afterword

The outcomes of my analysis and investigation over past year brought me to multiple starting points and road maps that are necessary to explore different layers of society. I have already started to dive deep into creating a critical theory on consumer society, identities and individuality, power and desire.

Guides & road maps

  • Michel Foucault: The Order of Things,
  • Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari: Anti-Oedipus, A Thousand Plateaus
  • Jean- Francois Lyotard: The Postmodern Condition: A Report on Knowledge, The Differend, Just Gaming
