The saturated self

Book • 2000
Kenneth Gergen's "The Saturated Self" explores the impact of postmodernity on the construction of identity.

Gergen argues that the rapid pace of social and technological change has led to a proliferation of identities and a sense of fragmentation.

He examines how individuals navigate the complexities of multiple roles and relationships in a world characterized by constant flux.

The book challenges traditional notions of a stable and coherent self, emphasizing the fluid and relational nature of identity.

Gergen's work offers a critical perspective on the challenges and opportunities of constructing a self in a postmodern world.
