The author examines how the confusion between the public and the private, security and risk, or the normative and the marginal, is eroding the foundations of our democracies. A rigorous study that unravels the uncertainties and threats facing our political and social future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book addresses the growing trend toward the dissolution of traditional boundaries in today's societies. It analyzes how this unsystematic and chaotic confluence of margins and borders generates a blurring of the categories that have organized social life until now. The text focuses on identifying the dangers of this contemporary confusion, particularly the mixing of the interior with the exterior, the private with the public, and risk with security. Through this diagnosis, it explores how these processes can lead to the deterioration of democratic systems and pave the way for the rise of populist and authoritarian regimes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eBlurring of borders and social boundaries in the contemporary era.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCrisis of the distinction between the public and the private.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between risk, security, and normativity in modern societies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAnalysis of the threats to democracy and the rise of populism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eStudy of margins and borders as spaces of social uncertainty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists, and social science scholars interested in processes of social and political change.
