Indifference and Repetition; or, Modern Freedom and Its Discontents

More about the book

Exploring the concept of freedom, the author critiques modern liberal ideology, arguing that the perceived freedom of choice is often illusory, shaped by capitalist influences. Ruda delves into the works of key philosophers like Descartes, Kant, Hegel, and Marx, revealing how their interpretations can lead to a misunderstanding of true freedom, which he suggests is often masked by indifference. The book serves as a profound examination of how modern philosophy has shaped our understanding of freedom, ultimately challenging readers to reconsider the nature of their own autonomy.
