Today, dissent is not repressed but neutralized and rendered harmless. One can speak, but it's of little use; one can demonstrate, but without actually impacting reality. Donatella Di Cesare (Domination and Dissent. A Brief Manifesto for Those Who Resist, Feltrinelli) presents a profound study that concerns us all, because it captures a world where technocracy empties conflict and war is an ordering principle of the present. Yet today, dissent persists, but the dissident is increasingly a fragile figure without protection or guarantees. Giorgio Scianna and Luca Pievani will be in conversation with her.
