ill., ril. La pandemia mondiale, l'infopandemia, lo stato d'emergenza, il controllo tecnologico e la supposta dittatura sanitaria hanno riportato alla ribalta la distopia orwelliana che annunciava il dominio del Grande Fratello. L'autore va controcorrente nell'interpretazione del dispotismo globale che non considera una dittatura che minaccia la democrazia, bensì la quintessenza della democrazia che intende spiritualmente, filosoficamente e politicamente come tirannide. Rilegge le profezie emerse dal disincanto del radicalismo democratico e le raffronta con lo sguardo di Nietzsche, Guénon, Evola e Jünger indicando la mentalità che ritiene giusta per annullare l'angoscia del domani e scacciare i fantasmi che, a suo avviso, sono il prodotto della nostra psiche non più ordinata, appunto democratizzata, che partorisce mostri distopici, e disintegrazione delle coscienze e, quindi, della società e della politica. Un pensiero tragico ma tutt'altro che disfattista.

cm. 17 x 24, xxiv-254 pp. Fondazione Luigi Firpo. Centro di studi sul pensiero politico - Studi e testi George Orwell ? il massimo interprete di un genere letterario, la distopia, che sembra essere la cifra del nostro presente; questa, infatti, coglie ed esprime con un?efficacia senza paragoni il principale paradosso che il terzo millennio ha ereditato dal Novecento: la clamorosa contraddizione tra l?onnipotenza dei mezzi tecnici che il secolo ha trovato a propria disposizione e la drammatica incapacit? da esso mostrata di raggiungere, senza pagare un prezzo sproporzionato, pressoch? tutti i propri fini. George Orwell is the major interpreter of dystopia, a literary genre that seems to be the key feature of the present. Dystopia is indeed an excellent tool to understand and explain the major paradox the third millennium has inherited from the 20th century: the striking contradiction between the omnipotence of the technical media this century had at its disposal and its dramatic inability to achieve almost all of its goals without paying a disproportionate price. 520 gr. xxiv-254 p.
