ABSTRACT

1. A World of Uncertainty. 2. Goods, People, and Borders. 3. Inside the Paradox. Afterword.
Globalized world: supremacy of movement, elimination of economic and communication borders, faster circulation of goods, symbols, and ideas, acceleration in decision-making time. Promethean nature of global capitalism: producing universal cultural forms, the exclusive economic system of society, homogenization of material cultural world-wide. Liberalism, uncertainty in the economic prospects of the developed world, local and state restraints, quality of life, end of the modern social contract, material existence precariousness, the decay of social relations. Equality, lower labor costs, inequalities, migrants and refugees. The need of a complete overturning of “the enemy” presupposition. The Bossi-Fini law: temporary residency, contract for residency, will of the employer.
