Zygmunt Bauman's Approach to the Loss of Meaning of Morality in Postmodern Wars
Özet
Zygmunt Bauman, one of the most important sociologists of the 20th and 21st cen
turies, emphasizes that in the new post- modern period, which he calls the liquid
modern period, situations such as genocide, war, and massacre continue without
any change and that this situation is in line with the basic principles of modernism.
The thinker claims that the concept of dehumanization is currently valid and that
the weak are destroyed as a result of people disconnected from morality using tech
nology incredibly well. Postmodern massacres and wars are based on the absolute
rightness of the strong with rational justifications. This study, which conducts a
literature review and descriptive analysis, tries to understand postmodern wars
from the perspective of Zygmunt Bauman
