Rosaria Carpinelli Consulenze Editoriali - Il silenzio dell'opinione pubblica

What remains of public opinion in the age of social media, digital bubbles, endless information, and attention reduced to a flash?

In a close dialogue, Ezio Mauro and Zygmunt Bauman confront each other about the transformation of the agora into a labyrinth of connected solitudes, where politics loses grip on reality and citizens slide into impotence and resentment. The result is a lucid map of our present: the media crisis, the culture of oblivion, the secession of elites, the fear of others, the fragility of democracies.

But, in the heart of this age without public opinion, Bauman and Mauro claim the obstinacy of critical thinking and hope: the only force capable of restoring our word, responsibility, and future.
