So You've Been Publicly Shamed - Ronson Jon - książka
Producent: Palgrave Macmillan
The Sunday Times has recognized this book as a Top Ten Bestseller. Described by the Daily Mail as "magnificent, subtly argued, often painfully funny, and yet deeply serious," it comes highly recommended. Upon observing a resurgence in the phenomenon of public shaming, Jon Ronson embarked on an investigation. Initially, this trend appeared to be a way to democratize justice, giving a voice to the silent majority. However, questions arose about the implications of this newfound power.Ronson traveled globally, engaging with individuals who became the targets of notorious public shamings. These individuals are often relatable, akin to people who make ill-considered jokes on social media. Yet, once their mistakes become public, a storm of collective outrage ensues, often leading to their vilification or job termination. This raises important questions: Do they warrant such treatment? Are these acts of shaming justified, or is it simply a means of exercising social control?The book, now enriched with a new afterword detailing the author's own public shaming experience, offers an honest, moving, and humorous exploration of contemporary life. It unveils striking truths about the growing battle against human imperfections and the unsettling roles we all assume in this societal trend. The Independent lauds it as potentially Ronson's most ambitious undertaking—an eloquently conveyed, empathetic effort to reform our world, while the Guardian praises it for being consistently entertaining and thought-provoking.
