摘要:The teaching of sociology is today a humbling experience. Although we use complex theoretical models (the liquid society, system theory, social fluidity or Actor-Network Theory) that question the foundational bases of classical sociology, teaching practice shows that a simple or schematic picture of the social continues to prevail among students. The surprise is even greater when we consider that this is a generation that has been socialized in the use of digital tools, a resource that, in principle, should facilitate a mapping of social reality more appropriate to its complexity. Anthropomorphism, the idea that society is primarily a more or less stable grouping of individuals, is the impassable limit that continues to be imposed when it comes to understanding society. To undermine this hegemonic vision one must to turn to fields such as (digital) art, the new technologies and, in general, aesthetic innovation, not so much to destroy the anthropomorphic representation of the social as to disfigure it, in order to obtain other representations more consistent with a social complexity that we not only intuit, but whose proximity we can feel.
