What is Byung-Chul Han known for?
I am known for my critical diagnoses of contemporary society, particularly the pressures and pathologies of late capitalism. My work examines how the shift from external coercion to internal compulsion, driven by performance demands and transparency, leads to widespread exhaustion and a loss of negativity. I analyze the digital age's impact on our social and psychological well-being.
