Résumé:
"The more needs a human being has, the more he exists," quips Lefebvre in a savage critique of consumerist society, first published in 1947. The French philosopher, historian and Marxist sociologist, who died this summer at age 90, meditates on the dehumanization and ugliness smuggled into daily life under cover of purity, utility, beauty. He deconstructs leisure as a form of social control, spanks surrealism for its turning away from reality, and attempts to get past the "mystification" inherent in bourgeois life by analyzing Chaplin's films, Brecht's epic theater, peasant festivals, daydreams, Rimbaud and the rhythms of work and relaxation. Rejecting the inauthentic, which he perceives in a church service or in rote work from which one is alienated, Lefebvre nevertheless seeks to unearth the human potential that may be inherent in such rituals.

Résumé:
Written in 1973 but only recently discovered in a private archive, this work extends Lefebvre’s influential theory of urban space to the question of architecture. Taking the practices and perspective of habitation as his starting place, Lefebvre redefines architecture as a mode of imagination rather than a specialized process or a collection of monuments. He calls for an architecture of jouissance—of pleasure or enjoyment—centered on the body and its rhythms and based on the possibilities of the senses.

Résumé:
The Critique of Everyday Life is perhaps the richest, most prescient work by one of the twentieth century's greatest philosophers. The trilogy which provided the philosophy behind the 1968 student revolution in France, it is considered to be the founding text of what we now know as cultural studies. Whether discussing sport, household gadgets, the countryside, surrealism, Charlie Chaplin or religion, Lefebvre always concentrates on the minutiae of lived experience in work and leisure, daydreams, and festivities. Denounced by both the right and left when it was first published in France in 1947, today this text is recognized as a path-breaking, radical, and hugely influential book. Volume 3, From Modernity to Modernism (Towards a Metaphilosophy of Daily Life), explores the crisis of modernity and the decisive assertion of technological modernism.

Résumé:
Les écrits descriptifs d'espaces, de paysages, de campagnes et de villes ne se comptent plus... Sont-ils une connaissance de l'espace? Non, répond Lefèbvre qui tente ici de montrer l'unité théorique entre l'espace physique, l'espace mental et l'espace social. Chaque société produit un espace, le sien. La nôtre, forme du néo-capitalisme, a produit l'espace abstrait qui contient le " monde de la marchandise ", sa logique et ses stratégies à l'échelle mondiale en même temps que la puissance de l'argent et celle de l'Etat politique. Cet espace abstrait s'appuie sur les énormes réseaux des banques, des centres d'affaires, etc. Et aussi l'espace des autoroutes, des aérodromes, des centres d'informations et de communication. Dans cet espace, la ville, berceau de l'accumulation, lieu de la richesse, sujet de l'histoire, centre de l'espace historique a éclaté. Il s'agit d'en apprécier les conséquences... Il y a vingt-cinq ans paraissait la première édition de ce livre, devenu aujourd'hui un classique tant en France qu'à l'étranger où cet ouvrage a été beaucoup traduit.
