 Description
[Machine Translation] General economics" refers to the economics that places more importance on the "consumption" (i.e., "debauchery") of wealth than on its production. Prodigality, festivals, religion, eros, and art, which do not fit into the category of economic rationality, show that the essence of human pleasure lies not in the process of production and accumulation based on the principle of utility, but in consumption and debauchery. This book approaches the root of human existence by examining the "excess" that human beings have inevitably had to contain, and sharply and strongly urges us to reconsider this "cursed part" represented by prodigality, sanctity, and ecstasy in order to truly fulfill our lives. A new translation of Bataille's work that bets on the "Copernican turn" of consciousness. Included at the end of the book is an important pioneering article, "The Concept of Consumption.
