What is Called Caring?, Vol.1: The Immense Regression

‘What Is Called Caring?, Vol. 1: The Immense Regression’ is the first installment of Bernard Stiegler’s magnum opus, where he confronts the existential crisis of care in the Anthropocene. With thought seemingly helpless against the immense regression of post-truth, despair, and ecological collapse, Stiegler argues it is not too late—provided we rethink thought itself as care: as a form of healing and bandaging. Urgent and profound, this volume, masterfully translated by Daniel Ross, revisits Nietzsche, Guattari, and Deleuze to challenge humanity to rediscover care as a central mode of existence, offering a radical philosophical response to contemporary planetary crises.
