Noi, gli altri, il mondo
The lack of a balanced social contract, following the great transformations produced by globalization, as well as producing crises in every institutional apparatus, falls on the daily life of citizens who have been orphaned by so many certainties that modern society had guaranteed them from birth. The negative effects are recorded in the educational, political, economic, legal systems. The terms freedom, rationality, justice, well-being, equality, difference and diversity, tolerance and solidarity, with which modernity has been distinguished, have never been significantly identified in a universal way, but in the particular forms assumed in different social contexts; therefore they indicate the function and reflection that society has of itself in its many differences. In the book it is considered important to verify their meaning in the time of modern society: the concepts of freedom, equality, solidarity, which have exerted a significant formal influence in society since the eighteenth century, participating in the strong socio-cultural and political-economic transformation , what significance have they taken in the different phases of capitalist development and in what way are they still present in contemporary culture?
