“Industrial Society and Its Future”, commonly known as “The Unabomber Manifesto” is an essay written by the former domestic terrorist Dr. Ted Kaczynski. It touches on the subject of the advancements of technology and the industry and how such advancements will produce more negative outcomes than positive ones in the future. The manifesto was first published in both The Washington Post and The New York Times on September 19, 1995, after Kaczynski threatened to mail another bomb if the manifesto was not published. Although he later said we would only send one more bomb after the publication. After the release of his manifesto, Ted’s brother read the manifesto and managed to identify the writing style tobe of his brother which led to the Kaczynski being identified and detained.
