Critique of Everyday Life

"Critique of Everyday Life" is a philosophical and cultural analysis by Henri Lefebvre that examines daily routines and habits. It explores how ordinary activities—like shopping, working, or leisure—reflect broader social structures, power dynamics, and cultural norms. Lefebvre encourages us to see everyday life not just as mundane but as meaningful, revealing the ways society shapes individual behavior. By understanding this, we can become more aware of how our daily experiences are influenced by larger social forces and think critically about how to create more meaningful, equitable everyday environments.
