Hinweis der Redaktion
- The despots of the past were very different, they wanted to be admired. They wanted to be watched and adored, feared and obeyed. Their expansion of power was visible as well and the ways to stop their expansion, revert their powers or simply terminate their mandate were concrete, even if difficult to achieve. 21st Century totalitarianism is different and sometimes is even disguised as democracy. The despot of our days is different. Few saw it coming, while the rest of us easily failed for it, for the convenience, for its democratising power. We celebrated the real time connections, the constant contact. We felt liberated from crony media by the power of publishing in our own platforms, for a global audience. We were naïve. We even wanted to declare it a human right. We were slow, too slow to react. We were trapped. The despot gained access to every mind. The lecture will explain the dangers and uncertainties of a new subtle, yet total form of control, how we got there and what can we do to reverse it, suppress it, slow it down or embrace it and accept its consequences. It will also describe the new resistance against the system and offer some reflections on how to become unpredictable enough to leave room for dissent in an age of total control.
