NotesHeinz Bude is Professor of Sociology at the University of Kassel.
“He’s done it again! Bude once more takes the pulse of modern
societies, focusing here on the power of mood and mood swings. In
elegant, jargon-free prose, Bude demonstrates that sociology can
still tease out and describe meaningful shifts in our societies. He
shows that a critical anamnesis of the main societal conditions and
drifts of our time constitutes the first step towards recovery, and
perhaps even improvement.”
Andreas Hess, University College Dublin
“Bude resembles the pioneering Freud.”
Financial Times
"This book will be a thinking piece for a wide range of
sociologists, political scientists, and other researchers of the
media studies and public opinion."
