NARCISSISM ANS SOLIPSISM IN NEOLIBERAL SOCIETY
Neoliberalism is a form of capitalism and its beneficiaries aim to mould the society according to their own will to increase their capital. One such imajor concern that affects our young generation is narcissism and solipsism, which are philosophies of self-obsession and self-liking. Narcissist and solipsists think themselves to be the best and do not care about anyone else. We have to see how these thought processes are related to neoliberalism in a historical perspective, analyze them, and find out solutions. For that, Mr. Jon V Kofas, a retired professor of history from Greece analyzes it beautifully. Listen to it for insights.
