• Albert Borgmann (Nov. 23, 1937 – May 7, 2023) was a German-born American philosopher, specializing in the philosophy of technology.
• Borgmann was born in Freiburg, Germany, and was a professor of philosophy at the University of Montana. In 2013 Borgmann received the Golden Eurydice Award for his contributions to philosophy.[1] Borgmann died in Missoula, Montana on May 7, 2023, at the age of 85.[2]
• Technology and the Character of Contemporary Life: A Philosophical Inquiry (1984) is a landmark text in the philosophy of technology. Borgmann claims that technological devices are not value-neutral and counsels us to discover the good life in a technological world through what he calls "focal things and practices," which engage us in their own right.
• Crossing the Postmodern Divide (1992) is a philosophical critique of contemporary culture that offers a powerful alternative vision for the postmodern era. Described as a "[r]ather astoundingly large-minded vision of the nature of humanity, civilization, and science,"[3] this book charts a path out of the joyless and artificial culture of consumption.
• In Real American Ethics (2006), distancing himself from both conservative and liberal ideology, Borgmann explores the making of American values and proposes new ways for ordinary citizens to improve the country, through individual and social choices and actions.[4] Bill McKibben writes that Borgmann's "understanding that consumerism is the great enemy of reality in our time is profound, nonideological, and deeply helpful to any readers concerned not only about their country, but about their own lives."[5]
