Exploring the poststructuralist critique of subject-centered reason, this work delves into the historical and theoretical dimensions of modernity and postmodernity within the context of the information society. The author critiques neoliberal views of the subject in education, emphasizing the concept of economic man. By examining the roles of intellectuals and education in postmodern culture, the text addresses themes such as the self-limiting state, market subjects, ethics, science, mass media, and the politics of difference, seeking contemporary political alternatives.
