At the root of this thinking lies the belief that humans cannot know or control their basic natures, a premise that led to Heidegger's distrust of an individualistic, capitalist modern society and that allied him briefly with Hitler's National Socialist Party. While acknowledging some of Heidegger's misgivings toward modernity as legitimate, Renaut argues that it is nevertheless wrong to equate modernity with the triumph of individualism. Here he distinguishes between individualism and subjectivity and by offering a history of the two, powerfully redirects the course of current thinking away from potentially dangerous, reductionist views of humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788120816978\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.7 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Motilal Banarsidass Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49317913395504,"sku":"DRG.MLBD_9788120816978","price":257.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/motilal-banarsidass-publications-book-default-title-the-era-of-the-individual-a-contribution-to-a-history-of-subjectivity-39571163447600.jpg?v=1775956029","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/the-era-of-the-individual-a-contribution-to-a-history-of-subjectivity","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
