These are dark and darkening times, challenging us to look deeper to 
grasp the roots and dynamics of the looming civilizational crisis. 
Chronic illness of the planet calls for radically new thinking if there 
is to be any hope of renewal. When We Are Human offers thought at a 
necessary and primal level.
All previous civilizations have failed, and now there's just one global 
civilization, which is starkly, grandly failing. To deny or avoid this 
fact is to remain in the sphere of the superficial, the irrelevant. The 
physical environment is reaching the catastrophe stage as the seas warm, 
rise, acidify, and fill with plastics. Icebergs ahead and floating past 
beachgoers idly watching the planet die.
So much is failing, so much is interrelated in the technosphere of 
ever-greater dependence and estrangement. Social existence, now 
strangely isolated, is beset by mass shootings, rising suicide rates, 
slipping longevity, loneliness, anxiety, and the maddening stream of 
lies and concocted politics.
Zerzan trains his passionate focus on several fields of discourse: 
anthropology, history, philosophy, technology, psychology, and the 
spiritual. Points of light that become a kaleidoscope refracting new 
insights and contributing an overall picture of late civilization.


      Over de auteur (2021)

John Zerzan (born August 10, 1943) is an American anarchist and 
primitivist philosopher and author. His works criticize agricultural 
civilization as inherently oppressive, and advocate drawing upon the 
ways of life of hunter-gatherers as an inspiration for what a free 
society should look like. Some subjects of his criticism include 
domestication, language, symbolic thought (such as mathematics and art) 
and the concept of time.
