2019
L’intento di questo saggio è quello di proporre una riflessione critica sui modi in cui è rappresentato il disagio sociale – anche da parte di uomini e donne nelle loro rappresentazioni di sé – nella società contemporanea, criticandone la supremazia quale risultato del processo della cosiddetta individualizzazione della società e mostrandone i nessi, particolarmente complicati, con il (neo)liberismo – che ha tra i suoi principi e valori cardine la sovranità dell’individuo – per delineare infine alcune delle conseguenze che esso ha sulle strutture socio-familiari della contemporaneità.

The removal of trade barriers in the first decades after the Second World War as well as the subsequent regulation induced by globalization rendered …
