Jean Baudrillard ( , , ; – 6 March 2007) was a French
sociologist, philosopher and
poet with interest in
cultural studies. He is best known for his analyses of media, contemporary culture, and technological communication, as well as his formulation of concepts such as
hyperreality. Baudrillard wrote about diverse subjects, including
consumerism,
critique of economy,
social history,
aesthetics, Western
foreign policy, and popular culture. Among his most well-known works are ''Seduction'' (1978), ''
Simulacra and Simulation'' (1981), , and ''
The Gulf War Did Not Take Place'' (1991). His work is frequently associated with
postmodernism and specifically
post-structuralism. Nevertheless, Baudrillard had also ''opposed'' and had distanced himself from postmodernism.
