A work of seminal importance, this book presents Ivan Illich's penetrating analysis of the industrial mode of production which characterises our contemporary world. The conviviality for which noted social philosopher Ivan Illich is arguing is one in which the individual's personal energies are under direct personal control and in which the use of tools is responsibly limited. This book claims out attention for the urgency of its appeal, the stunning clarity of its logic and the overwhelmingly human note that it sounds.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Ivan Illich

Ivan Illich was born in Vienna in 1926.
Illich's path to freedom becomes intertwined, from a certain point onward, with Latin America, and Mexico in particular, where he founded the renowned CIDOC (Intercultural Documentation Center) research center.
His work breaks with all models of academic thought.
While not rejecting formal positions in academia in principle, Illich always sought to integrate into the community of meaning and senses that he considered to be his natural place.
Regarding our times, he wrote that "economic growth projects quickly crumble into ruin, and we must learn to live amidst their debris."
