Las aventuras de Genitalia y Normativa

Las aventuras de Genitalia y Normativa

Fernández Porta, Eloy

Sexy is normie. Normie is sexy. This book proposes a provocative interpretation of the dynamic between the normative and the transgressive. Combining sociology, biopolitics, and satire, he presents a striking theory of normative imagination as a characteristic cognitive mode of the age of emotional capitalism. Gender, fashion, artistic creation and surveillance are analyzed from the perspective of a regulatory impulse, an imperative of continuously renewed normalization, which no longer comes from the factual powers but from the citizens themselves. These, united in a spontaneous popular court, armed with smartphones and animated by a legal compulsion, become the axis of the societies of control. And so it turns out that the affective styles of constructing subjectivity are traversed by the most distinctive pathology of our times, the name of the globalized game: normopathy for all.
