Christopher Lasch - The Culture of Narcissism: American Life in an Age of Diminished Expectations.

History conspiracy podcast

Robert Christopher Lasch was an American historian, moralist, and social critic who was a history professor at the University of Rochester. Lasch sought to use history as a tool to awaken American society to the pervasiveness with which major institutions, public and private, were eroding the competence and independence of families and communities. He strove to create a historically informed social criticism that could teach Americans how to deal with rampant consumerism, proletarianization, and what he famously labeled "the culture of narcissism". --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/art-mcdermott/support
