A estrutura simbólica da vida líquida em Zygmunt Bauman

Abstract

The paper approaches the idea of “liquid life” according to definition established for Zygmunt Bauman, using to advantage of the contributions of other thinkers who in some way reveal theoretical neighborhoods with the considered subjects. In the context of this said “liquid life”, it is reflected how the current humanity tries its understanding of the reality, as well as its existencial situation marked by the anxiety ahead of a vertiginous reality each unstabler time and a social order marked by the violence and the loss of the confidence in the social collective; more still, the social mechanisms are presented that they aim at to contain the public unreliability.
