Perché non siamo popolo – Ferruccio Capelli – Stratagemmi 38/39

Descrizione

Etymologically, the word “farmaco” has a double meaning: it is a medicine that is often also poisonous. This duality fits perfectly with the rampant populism of our time: on the one hand it is a cure for the deformation of neoliberal democracy, on the other it is an impending danger for democratic life. The book Il futuro addosso (Guerini e associati, 2018) and chapter 14, reproduced here, help to focus on the roots and the profound consequences of the phenomenon that is marking this political season at a global level.
