Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Reflections on everyday authoritarianism in Brazil. With a rare ability to explain philosophical themes to the general reader, Marcia Tiburi has achieved public and critical success as a pop philosopher. In this context of heightened emotions and aggressive political clashes, Tiburi presents a philosophical-political purpose: to engage readers in thinking about issues of political culture experienced daily, in an open manner, without falling into academic jargon. The main argument is about how to think of a method or stance to counter hate speech, its reflections in Brazilian society, and its repercussions on social media. The philosopher proposes dialogue as a form of resistance and analyzes recent news and political events to demonstrate once again that it is possible to discuss complex themes in a way that everyone can understand. The book includes unpublished essays and some previously published in the magazine Cult, combining intellectual depth and sophistication present in the work of Marcia Tiburi.
