More about the book
This book explores how social practices have historically shaped modern subjectivity from the early modern period to today. Vesting argues that legal personhood in Western societies is linked to three ideal types: the gentleman, the manager, and Homo digitalis, emerging from cultural conditions rather than formal law. It's a significant work for social sciences and humanities scholars.
