Creo que ahora más que nunca es necesario entender la importancia que tiene el contexto sociopolítico en el desarrollo de diferentes patologías y enfermedades mentales, y este pequeño ensayo hace un trabajo excelente a la hora de explorar estos temas.
"La sociedad del trabajo se ha individualizado y convertido en la sociedad del rendimiento y actividad. El animal laborans tardomoderno está dotado de tanto ego que está por explotar"

Muy interesante respecto a la sociedad en la que nos estamos convirtiendo y como el rendimiento se ha vuelto el sentido de todo.
"A violência neuronal que conduz a enfartes psíquicos é um terror da imanência, um terror que não tem absolutamente nada que ver com aquele horror emanado do estranho em sentido imunológico."
Que ensaio incrível! Andava há imenso tempo para o ler e não desiludiu!

I think it's my first time reading books from modern/contemporary philosopher that still alive and well today? And Byungchul Han interests me because, oddly enough, I found his name when I was looking for books regarding ADHD.
In this book, Byungchul Han argued that nowadays many people getting depression and/or ADHD is because nowadays we're not a punishment society anymore, but moving onto achievement society. So in punishment society, we were actively point and then exclude 'the other', and thus 'the abnormal' that was brought by 'the other' was avoided and we project sameness. But now, since we're moving to achievement society, it's a society that celebrates difference as long as with those difference we can achieve more. That means the control for 'otherness' is weaken and thus the abnormal that we're exposed of, we deal with them individually. So in achievement society, we push ourselves to create more and achieve more, but that's make us voluntarily abuse and punish ourselves for the sake of achievements.
Interesting argument.
