Dialectics of Alienation and Abnormality, in: Jeremiah Morelock and Felipe Ziotti Narita: The Society of the Selfie. Social Media and the Crisis of Liberal Democracy, London (University of Westminster Press) 2022, pp. 81-101. [jstor.org/stable/j.ctv282jfv5.8]

  • [From Introduction] In this chapter we describe a complex, dialectical >system< of psycho-sociality. The system has four aspects, which we will discuss in relation to one another: alienation, ‘authenticity strain’, fear and normality/abnormality. We begin by defining our use of the term >alienation< here, where we will focus more on Fromm’s theory of alienation than Debord’s, although in the society of the selfie Debord’s and Fromm’s respective models of alienation can be understood as two wings of the same bird.
