The Pandemic, the wars, the crisis of political institutions, and the expansion of the intensive use of social networks have impacted the elaboration of phantoms and fantasies that emerge from the modifications of the politics of the bodies and politics of emotions: today—what more than never?—the sensibilities are changing on a global scale.
Emotions and politics of sensibilities registered in the current process of colonization of the inner planet imply the urgency of relieving the forms that its impacts acquire in the daily life of a global scale that becomes trans-globalization.
Trans-globalization is characterized by the modification of three basic features of the structuring processes on a planetary scale: (a) the unnoticed acceptance of the global extension of the banalization of the good, the politics of perversion, and the logic of waste; (b) the return of the question/tension/paradox of sovereignty as a physical device for international mediation of virtual transnational commodification; and (c) the acceleration of the so-called energy transition.
‘Sensibilities and Emotion on Trans-Globalisation Era is a timely and profound exploration of the evolving complexities in our interconnected world. Through an interdisciplinary approach, the text illuminates the fragile interplay of gender, age, ethnicity and class, offering crucial insights into the shifting dynamics of global inequalities with a focus on sensibilities and emotions, crucial elements of our sociocultural worlds, relations and experiences. It is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand contemporary sociocultural trends and transformations’ — Begonya Enguix Grau, Professor of Social and Cultural Anthropology, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC)
