Contents |
Stiegler's work is influenced by, among others, André Leroi-Gourhan, Gilbert Simondon, Friedrich Nietzsche, Paul Valéry, Edmund Husserl, Martin Heidegger, and Jacques Derrida.
Key themes are technology, time, individuation, consumerism, consumer capitalism, technological convergence, digitization, Americanization, and the future of politics and human society.
Between 1978 and 1983 Stiegler was incarcerated for armed robbery, first at the Saint-Michel prison in Toulouse, and then at the Muret detention centre. It was during this period that he became interested in philosophy. His transformation in prison is recounted in his book, Passer à l’acte (2003).
Stiegler defended his thesis at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in 1992. He has been a Director at the Collège international de philosophie, and Professor at the Université de Compiègne. He has held the positions of Director General at the Institut National de l'Audiovisuel (INA), and Director General at IRCAM.
On January 1, 2006 he commenced as Director of the Department of Cultural Development at the Centre Georges-Pompidou.
Stiegler has founded a political group, Ars Industrialis, the manifesto of which calls for an "industrial politics of spirit."
Stiegler features prominently in the film The Ister (2004).
