La producci\u00f3n de \u00abresiduos humanos\u00bb \u2014o, para ser m\u00e1s precisos, las poblaciones \u00absuperfluas\u00bb de emigrantes, refugiados y dem\u00e1s parias\u2014 es una consecuencia inevitable de la modernizaci\u00f3n. Y tambi\u00e9n se trata de un ineludible efecto secundario del progreso econ\u00f3mico y la b\u00fasqueda de orden, caracter\u00edsticos de la modernidad. Mientras vastas regiones del mundo permanecieron total o parcialmente al margen de la modernizaci\u00f3n, las dem\u00e1s sociedades las ve\u00edan como zonas capaces de absorber el excedente de poblaci\u00f3n de los \u00abpa\u00edses desarrollados\u00bb. Se buscaban \u2014y se hallaban de forma temporal\u2014 soluciones globales a los problemas de superpoblaci\u00f3n producidos localmente. Pero, a medida que la modernizaci\u00f3n ha ido alcanzando las \u00e1reas m\u00e1s remotas del planeta, se ha generado una gran cantidad de \u00abpoblaci\u00f3n superflua\u00bb, y ahora son todas las regiones las que han de cargar con las consecuencias.. Por lo tanto, nos enfrentamos a la necesidad de buscar soluciones locales a problemas producidos globalmente. La propagaci\u00f3n global de la modernidad ha dado lugar a un n\u00famero cada vez m\u00e1s elevado de seres humanos que se encuentran privados de medios adecuados de subsistencia, y a la vez el planeta se est\u00e1 quedando sin lugares donde ubicarlos. De ah\u00ed las nuevas inquietudes acerca de los \u00abinmigrantes\u00bb y los que piden \u00abasilo\u00bb, as\u00ed como la importancia creciente del papel que desempe\u00f1an los difusos \u00abtemores relativos a la seguridad\u00bb en la agenda pol\u00edtica contempor\u00e1nea. Con la brillantez que caracteriza a su autor, este nuevo libro de Zygmunt Bauman desentra\u00f1a el impacto de esta transformaci\u00f3n sobre la cultura y la pol\u00edtica contempor\u00e1neas, y muestra que el problema de hacer frente a los \u00abresiduos humanos\u00bb brinda una clave para comprender algunas peculiaridades, por lo dem\u00e1s desconcertantes, de nuestra vida en com\u00fan, desde las estrategias de dominaci\u00f3n global hasta los aspectos m\u00e1s \u00edntimos de las relaciones humanas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
