Fenomenologia della fiducia e del consenso : note su La credibilità politica di Guido Gili e Massimiliano Panarari

2021 - Franco Angeli

P. 190-198

  • The author of this essay critically reflects on La credibilità politica by Guido Gili and Massimiliano Panarari, published in 2020. In their work, Gili and Panarari pose a basic question: "What is credibility? What does ‘to be credible' mean?". To answer this question, they investigate some crucial themes from different and complementary perspectives, i.e., theoretical, historical, political, sociological, practical, or moral. What are the analysed issues? The roots of credibility; the characteristics and "virtues" that a political subject must possess to be considered credible; the forms of social circulation of credibility and trust in the political sphere; the risks and pathologies of credibility; and, lastly, the new foundations of political credibility.
