"Niente sarà più come prima". Sui giorni del coronavirus come epoca

Abstract

This article reflects on the need to define the time of the pandemic as an entirely new time, a separate and distinct era. A radical and global change seems to have been evoked – invoked, desired – since the beginning of the quarantine. Auspices, evocations that clash, however, with many signs offered by the present days: certainly nothing has changed, and nothing seems to have to change, in the lives of many people, deprived of their rights and dignity.
