BAPTISTA, Luis Antonio dos Santos; CANDIDO, Mario Cesar Carvalho de Moura and AVILA, Raphael Ferreira de. La ciudad del anónimo: experimentaciones éticas. Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2020, vol.26, n.1, pp.346-364. ISSN 1677-1168. https://doi.org/10.5752/P.1678-9563.2020v26n1p336-353.
This article intends to explore the subjects of masks and anonymity as possible ways to engage in ethical and political experimentations. For that matter it is important to let ourselves be affected by the intensity of paradoxes that inhabit the city’s streets and social struggles associated with them. The essay treats anonymity as a conceptual tool that could bring fresh thinking and air to the constant vigil against modern oppression, keeping us away from a private subjectivity as well from the constraints found in identitarian collectives. The investigation puts anonymity in the realm of resistance: which kind of resistance? What forms of expression could put it in relation to politics and ethics? Those questions are put into open perspectives that could help address the problems of State violence and the various ways to fight it.
