Vivos y la muerte

by Jean Ziegler

Podemos hacer una sociologia de la muerte? Que sabemos de ella?, y sin embargo nada dirige mas a una cultura que el lugar que le da a la muerte. Este libro es una tentativa de hacer avanzar el conocimiento sociologico en esa zona oscura, sin separar la voluntad de comprender de la voluntad de liberar.
