THE CONSTRUCTION OF SELF (AND “US”) IN THE TIME OF DATAISM The essay intends to analyze some elements concerning the crux of the construction of Self (and “Us”) in the age of the so-called Dataism. The analysis moves, first of all, from epistemological considerations, and then goes on issues concerning the crux of identity and subjectivation within the conceptual couple Neoliberalism/Dataism: taking the cue from the observations of Goffman and Foucault, we intend to identify the heart of the problem within the impossibility of a narrative and temporalized construction of Self. The conclusions will attempt critical work around the notion of Populism as a dominant political aspect in the age of Dataism.
