Jean Baudrillard était un sociologue, philosophe et théoricien de la culture français dont les œuvres influentes ont exploré les médias, la technologie, la société de consommation et la nature de la réalité contemporaine. Il a acquis une reconnaissance internationale pour ses analyses critiques de la société postmoderne, notamment à travers des textes fondamentaux tels que "Seduction", "Simulacra and Simulation" et "The Gulf War Did Not Take Place". Ses écrits ont disséqué les frontières floues entre réalité et représentation, introduisant des concepts clés comme l'hyperréalité—une condition où les simulations remplacent l'expérience authentique. Bien qu'il soit souvent associé au postmodernisme et au post-structuralisme, Baudrillard s'est distancié de ces mouvements, conservant une trajectoire intellectuelle distincte.
Son approche interdisciplinaire couvrait la sociologie, l'esthétique, le commentaire politique et les études culturelles, reflétant son engagement large envers la politique étrangère occidentale, l'économie et la culture populaire. Son style provocateur alliait rigueur philosophique et perspicacité poétique, remettant en question les récits conventionnels sur le progrès et le sens à la fin du XXe siècle. Des ouvrages comme "America" illustraient sa capacité à fusionner critique acérée et observation vivante, examinant les mythologies de la société de consommation moderne. Au-delà du monde universitaire, ses idées ont trouvé un écho dans l'art, le cinéma et la théorie des médias, consolidant son héritage en tant que penseur central de son époque. Baudrillard a continué à écrire et à donner des conférences jusqu'à sa mort en 2007, laissant derrière lui une œuvre qui demeure largement débattue et influente.
