[2011] The Global Factory of Wasted Humans, part 1 [13:01], 2 [10:05], 3 [13:45]
Bauman talks about The Global Factory of Wasted Humans in a filmed conference
published on the French video portal Audiovisual Research Archive. For Bauman
the production of human waste or more precisely, wasted lives, the superfluous
populations of migrants, refugees and other outcasts is an inevitable outcome of
modernization. It is an unavoidable side-effect of economic progress and the quest
for order which is characteristic of modernity. As long as large parts of the world
remained wholly or partly unaffected by modernization, they were treated by
modernizing societies as lands that were able to absorb the excess of population in
the developed countries. Global solutions were sought, and temporarily found, to
locally produced overpopulation problems. But as modernization has reached the
furthest lands of the planet, redundant population is produced everywhere and all
localities have to bear the consequences of modernitys global triumph. They are
now confronted with the need to seek local solutions to globally produced problems.
The global spread of the modernity has given rise to growing quantities of human
beings who are deprived of adequate means of survival, but the planet is fast
running out of places to put them. Hence the new anxieties about immigrants and
asylum seekers and the growing role played by diffuse security fears on the
contemporary political agenda. See his book Wasted Lives: Modernity and Its
Outcasts [2004].
