Resumen

Los once artículos de este número especial analizan la forma en que diferentes fuentes de perturbación colisionan con la normalidad, las consecuencias en la vida individual, social e institucional, y los esfuerzos para restablecer lo anterior o crear una nueva normalidad. Surgen de una serie de seminarios online de septiembre y octubre de 2020 que investigaban la normalidad, la perturbación y la normalización en la estela de los shocks medioambientales, tecnológicos, epidemiológicos y socioeconómicos de la actualidad. La perturbación es una ventana al tejido subyacente de los acuerdos sociales. Nos permite investigar el concepto de normalidad y sus implicaciones, las tensiones y los conflictos entre los medios económicos, sociales, jurídicos y tecnológicos empleados para restablecer la normalidad. Paradójicamente, las tecnologías de la normalización pueden causar más trastornos. La dignidad humana es un valor referente en estas investigaciones. La introducción y los artículos sugieren medidas posibles para anticiparnos a las perturbaciones y consiguientes daños, y nos alertan de los riesgos para la dignidad humana provenientes de la perturbación y de intentos de reimponer tipos de normalidad.
