Abstract
In the Post-Global Reality Virtuality Comes to the Fore While Social Reality, Alfred Schutz’s "world of life", steps behind acquiring the qualification and quality of backstage. Who are then the priests of the cult of virtuality, i.e. of the present day process through which the social actors are reduced to being spectators, profane spectators? The term backstage refers to a “hidden world”, to the hidden world which is not part of the self-representation of society in the post-global era, the era in which the grands-récits have not disappeared but are more than ever boldly active thanks to their being in hiding. The grands-récits in hiding allow the hiding of the actual stage of the social actor’s deepest identity to himself rendering him thus unable to assume and institute identities –whether in accordance with or alien to his deepest identity within the complex of the post-global self-representations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
