<p>Global growth sets new records, poverty and illiteracy rates fall, technological innovation creates amazing opportunities.  </p><p>Still we are deeply discontent, there is something fundamentally wrong with contemporary society. Democracies are paralysed and produce authoritarian bullies as leaders, a growing underclass sedates itself with fast carbs and moronic entertainment. Society is infantilised and political discourse implodes.  </p><p><i>Digital Libido: Sex, power and violence in the network society</i> is a deep and brutal analysis of humanity s rapidly increasing sense of loss and confusion in the network society. Departing from Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, and his prophetic masterpiece <i>Civilisation and its Discontents</i>, philosophers and futurologists Alexander Bard and Jan Söderqvist create a tour de force while digging deep into the human condition in the internet age. Exposing every aspect of the complex relationship between Man and technology, Bard &amp; Söderqvist clarify our current and future existential dilemmas.  </p><p>Welcome to the attentionalist chaos, where order gains such a massive value that people are willing to pay any price to obtain it.   </p><p>So what is happening?   </p><p>And why?   </p><p><i>Digital Libido: Sex, power and violence in the network society</i> answers the questions you were too scared to even ask.  </p><p></p><p>About the authors:  </p><p>ALEXANDER BARD is a philosopher, futurologist, spiritual and political activist.
