Anomie
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Anomie, Durkheim's term, is the condition of a society whose norms have weakened or become unclear, leaving members without reliable guidance.
Show
Rapid change can outpace the rules for it, and people are left improvising what was once settled.
Watch for
Anomie describes a state of the society, not a mood inside a person.
