Resumen
[es] Las sociedades posindustriales son sociedades fuertemente mediatizadas. La comunicación y la información cumplen
en ella un papel protagónico, sobresaliente, decisivo. Ante
este panorama, recurrimos al pensamiento de Jean Baudrillard, quien pensó esta situación de cambio social y cultural
ocasionado por el avance y la perfección de las técnicas de
comunicación y percepción. Haremos hincapié en la teoría
de Baudrillard según la cual las sociedades actuales se rigen
por el principio de simulación, el cual prima sobre el principio
de producción de la época industrial y sobre el principio de
falsificación que reivindicaba la época clásica. Los simulacros de tercer orden se imponen: el sistema, según Baudrillard, comienza a girar sobre sí. Todo es puesto en órbita. Los
simulacros se adelantan a los hechos: los medios crean el
acontecimiento. Así, lo real no es ya sólo objeto de representación, ahora también es objeto de reproducción indefinida, infinita. La realidad se disipa, se volatiliza por exceso.
La pérdida de referencia es paralela a la desmaterialización
progresiva de lo social. Todo parece indicar que el éxtasis de
la comunicación conduce a la desaparición de lo real
[en] Postindustrial societies are highly mediated societies. Communication and information play a leading role in it, remarkable, decisive. Against this background, we turn to the Jean Baudillard s thought , watching the situation of social and cultural change brought about by the advancement and perfection of techniques of communication and perception. We will emphasize Baudrillard’s theory according to which societies are governed by the principle of simulation, which takes precedence over the principle of production of the industrial era and the beginning of forgery which claimed the classical period. The third-order simulacra are imposed: the system, according to Baudrillard, begins to spin. Everything is put into its orbit. The drills are ahead of the facts: the media create the event. Thus, the real is no longer just an object of representation, it is now the subject of looping, infinite. The reality is dissipated, is volatilized by excess. The loss of reference is parallel to the progressive dematerialization of the social. It seems that the ecstasy of communication leads to the disappearance of the real subject.
