The exhaustion of ancient ideals, the collapse of metaphysics, and the exponential progress of technology and scientific discoveries have destabilized the features in people that make them human. Redeker explores this destabilization from such perspectives as architecture and philosophy, the vanishing universal, and sports as the planetary manufacture of dehumanization.
