Christopher Lasch

author United States

Christopher Lasch was an American historian, moralist, and social critic, best known for his 1979 book 'The Culture of Narcissism,' which explored the rise of self-centeredness and individualism in American society. His work delved into the implications of a narcissistic culture on social relationships and political engagement, arguing that contemporary society's focus on personal fulfillment and material success led to a decline in community and interpersonal connections. Lasch's insights into the psychological underpinnings of social behavior remain influential in discussions of contemporary culture and politics.
