A Passion for Ignorance – Online Audiobook
A Passion for Ignorance – Online Audiobook, What We Choose Not to Know and Why by Author Renata Salecl.
This provocative audiobook narrated by Lisa Coleman explores our ability to let go of what is inconvenient or painful.
Renata Salecl argues that ignorance, whether passive or active, conscious or unconscious, has always been part of the human condition. What has changed in our post-truth, post-industrial world is that we often feel overwhelmed by the constant flow of information and misinformation.
It sometimes seems impossible to distinguish what is real from what is fake, and as a result, there has been a backlash against the idea of expertise, and an increase in the number of people actively choosing not to know. The dangers of this are clear, but Salecl challenges our assumptions, arguing that there can be a positive side to ignorance.
Drawing on philosophy, social theory and psychoanalysis, popular culture, and personal experience, Salecl explores how the passion for ignorance manifests in many different aspects of life. living today, from love, disease, trauma and fear of failure to genetics, forensics.
The result is a fascinating investigation into how the knowledge economy became the economy of ignorance, what it means for us, and what it tells us about today’s world.
