“In our world of rampant individualization, identities are cross and delight. They oscillate between dream and nightmare, and you can never tell when one transforms into the other. In most cases, the two modalities of the identities in times of liquid modernity coexist, even when they are placed at different levels of awareness.
In a living environment of liquid modernity, identities are perhaps the most common, most intense, most deeply felt, and burdensome incarnations of ambivalence.”
Zygmunt Bauman “Inteview on Identity”

In un ambiente di vita di modernità liquida le identità sono forse le incarnazioni più comuni, più intense, più profondamente sentite e gravose dell’ambivalenza.”
Zygmunt Bauman, “Intervista sull’indentità”.
