當代法國哲學家、社會哲學家布西亞（Jean Baudrillard）《消費社會》（La Societe de consommation）乃當代社會哲學重要著作，不僅以後結構主義、符號理論和交換理論探討了物的消費品化、消費社會的結構，消費社會的「神話」所造成的危害和浪費，也論及消費理論和大眾傳媒、身體（作為消費品和象徵符號）等問題。本課程希望能透過文本研讀與分析，瞭解當代消費社會問題的形成，以及消費與我們的生存（死亡）的關係。

"La Societe de consommation" (La Societe de consommation) by contemporary French philosopher and social philosopher Jean Baudrillard is an important work in contemporary social philosophy. It not only explores the consumerization of objects, the structure of consumer society, and the harm and waste caused by the "myth" of consumer society through post-structuralism, semiotic theory, and exchange theory, but also discusses issues such as consumption theory, mass media, and the body (as consumer goods and symbols). This course hopes to understand the formation of contemporary consumer society issues and the relationship between consumption and our survival (death) through text study and analysis.
