Overview

By 2003, we are told, there will be 900 million internet-connected mobiles. This Postmodern Encounter gives the gist of the massive campaign to 'mobilise' the globe, and asks the urgent question: what is happening to the idea of 'communication'? Key thinkers of the twentieth century offer an essential alternative to these new doctrines of m-communication: Martin Heidegger, who saw humanity as 'the entity which talks' and J rgen Habermas, current-day advocate of authentic communication. This is a close encounter between alien visions of communication, and between the utopianism of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
