{"product_id":"9781472437082","title":"The Terminal Self : Everyday Life in Hypermodern Times (Interactionist Currents)","description":"\u003cp\u003eInspired by interactionist theory and Goffman’s dramaturgy, this book traces the terminal or online self, generated by our modern practice of interacting with others on terminals, both on- and offline. It explores the deterioration of our sensory engagement in face-to-face interactions; the ‘hyper-narcissism’ that comes to characterise the project of the self in contemporary society; the short, decontextualized, often faceless and instrumental nature of our terminal interactions with others; the drive for immediate gratification, voyeurism and exhibitionism that shapes hypermodern lives; and the sense of panic and urgency that prevails in our responses to an incessant flow of communication. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45538995535951,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":7000.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9781472437082","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
