Exclusive to this English edition are two interviews with the author.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In this book, the philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy examines the nature of catastrophes in the era of globalization and technology. Can a catastrophe be an isolated occurrence? Is there such a thing as a "natural" catastrophe when all of our technologies--nuclear energy, power supply, water supply--are necessarily implicated, drawing together the biological, social, economic, and political? Nancy examines these questions and more. Exclusive to this English edition are two interviews with Nancy conducted by Danielle Cohen-Levinas and Yuji Nishiyama and Yotetsu Tonaki.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"A powerful reflection on our times, our condition, and the fate of our civilization, <br>as revealed by the catastrophe of Fukushima."</p><b>-----François Raffoul, <i>Louisiana State University</i></b><br><br><p>"Leave it to Jean-Luc Nancy to take an event like the Fukushima nuclear<br>disaster and turn it into an occasion for rethinking the essence of capitalism, <br>globalization, the fate of the Earth, and the future of democracy."</p><b>-----Michael Naas, <i>DePaul University</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Jean-Luc Nancy (Author) </b><br> <b>Jean-Luc Nancy</b> (1940-2016) was Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the Université Marc Bloch, Strasbourg.
