摘要

Zygmunt Bauman is the author of over 50 books, and he appears frequently on mass media outlets all over Europe. He has won several major prizes, and had institutes founded in his name. There is no sign, although he is now in his mid-80s, of any diminution of drive. Very much to the contrary, he comments with real force on current events while devouring contemporary social theory, in the light of which he continues to try to make sense of a remarkable life. He is a phenomenon, probably the most-read social theorist of the age.
