Conspirações do eu no quase-mundo da desinformação

This review provides a critical assessment of the latest work by Canadian writer, researcher, and socioenvironmental activist Naomi Klein, known for books that condemn disaster capitalism. In Doppelgänger, the innovative author starts from a personal dilemma—being systematically confused with a near-homonym on social media, her distorted double—to construct a political narrative about disinformation and denialism, polarization, political extremism, and neoliberalization of sociability. With this, she develops a notion of a mirror world, where the doubles of rationality roam in a disturbing way.

Abstract

This review provides a critical assessment of the latest work by Canadian writer, researcher, and socioenvironmental activist Naomi Klein, known for books that condemn disaster capitalism. In Doppelgänger, the innovative author starts from a personal dilemma—being systematically confused with a near-homonym on social media, her distorted double—to construct a political narrative about disinformation and denialism, polarization, political extremism, and neoliberalization of sociability. With this, she develops a notion of a mirror world, where the doubles of rationality roam in a disturbing way.
