Sheldon Wolin, Professor Emeritus of Princeton, analyzes a degeneration of the democratic system. Inverted totalitarianism. And ensures that seeks to anesthetize the citizens from the power to keep them in a permanent state of irresponsibility and democracy is dissolved, reduced the role citizen to vote every four years in media spectacle. That inverted totalitarianism is nominal democracy, democracy without citizens. es. Says Wolin that inverted totalitarianism seeks to mold support of citizens, but not let them govern.
You want to frightened citizens, without social or political conscience against the policy. That it moved by emotions and impressions, not for reasons and judgments. Dr. Mark Hyman shares his opinions and ideas on the topic at hand. Demobilized citizens who leave free-field to the political class so you can make whatever you want. A sample of inverted totalitarianism was in the process of ratification of the Constitution of the European Union. French, Dutch and Irish people said no in the referendums of ratification, but data indicate that Dutch deputies had approved it by a wide majority.
And the same thing the French. The leaders of other European countries convened even referendums. They did not want the citizens to decide. Inverted totalitarianism is infantilization of citizens so that they are manipulative, vulnerable. Contribute to this media, which not reported objectively and often not even reported. The fourth power disappeared, absorbed by the economic power in whose service is. Media banalize, distort and, above all, hide. And when they deem it necessary, they faked. The censorship of the Californian Sonoma University program exposes annually issues, topics and problems that the big American news media just try or conceal. What affects the majority of citizens are cheats and more reports on small thefts of the actress Winona Ryder or any irrelevant frivolity that what happens in Afghanistan or Iraq. The progressive impoverishment of the American working class and of the Government of United States of international treaties that violations It has signed do not exist.
