"Anomie" is a term from the foundational French sociologist Emile Durkheim. It refers to the rage and chaos created in individuals and the networks they interact with when social disconnection and personal alienation reach dangerous levels. In this talk, Hedges turns his lens towards our cultural patterns of alienation, loneliness, resentment, frustration, and despair. He attempts to place the cause of mass shootings, ethnonationalist violence, and crimes of despair and self-harm within a sociological context responsive to our times.
