Shoshana Zuboff

  • The civilizing process has increased the distance between behavior and the impulse life of the animal body.

  • I've lived in a preindustrial (rural Argentina) as well as an industrial world. You experience a different sense of time in a community that works the land. Human relationships aren't professionalized or contractualized; family and friends take primacy. Life has much more continuity than discontinuity. There's a great deal of poetry in everyday life.
