Man and Technics

Meer over het boek

Oswald Spengler critiques technology and industrialism in Western society, arguing that the achievements of his time may eventually be viewed as mere spectacles by future generations, akin to ancient wonders. He posits that Western culture faces internal destruction from materialism and external threats from economic competition and warfare. While his views are controversial and may seem extreme to contemporary readers, Spengler's work remains significant as a critical examination of modern progress and its implications for civilization.
