Naomi Klein

Vi lever i en tid där högerextrema rörelser flörtar vilt med arbetarklassen och där AI-genererat innehåll ständigt luckrar upp gränsen mellan sant och falskt. Författaren och aktivisten Naomi Klein kallar vår nya verklighet ett slags spegelland, fyllt av förvillande skuggspel, digitala återspeglingar och fake news. I sin nya bok konfronterar Klein konspirationstänkandet och vår politiskt polariserade samtid genom att vända sig till bland annat Sigmund Freud, Jordan Peele, Alfred Hitchcock och bell hooks. Allt med utgångspunkt i hur hon själv ofta sammanblandats med den amerikanska författaren och namnen Naomi Wolf. Kan vi med dagens förutsättningar bygga en politik grundad i omsorg om det gemensamma? Doppelgänger är en personlig och tankeväckande skildring av vår tids självupptagenhet, en intellektuell resa bortom hopplösheten. NAOMI KLEIN är en kanadensisk författare, journalist och aktivist - och en av vår tids största tänkare. Hon är känd för sina banbrytande verk om globalisering, kapitalism och klimatförändringar som No logo, Chockdoktrinen och Det här förändrar allt. "´Doppelgängers´ styrka ligger i elegansen i metaforen, och i hur ärlig Klein är med att de två spegelbilderna har många likheter, hur ogärna personerna på respektive sida än vill." Marika Lindgren Åsbrink, Aftonbladet "...en ur alla synvinklar svindlande läsupplevelse." Dagens Nyheter, Sara Martinsson "...en måsteläsning i vår förvirrade tid, där paranoian och rädslan för den andre tycks växa sig allt större. Doppelgänger slår ett slag för intellektuell komplexitet och hederlighet, och är en lisa att läsa." Göteborgs-Posten, Sanna Samuelsson

Hvad nu, hvis du vågnede op og opdagede, at du havde en dobbeltgænger? Næsten som dig, men alligevel slet ikke? Da Naomi Klein finder ud af, at en kvinde med samme fornavn, men med radikalt andre og vildere synspunkter bliver kronisk forvekslet med hende, virker det for fjollet til at tage alvorligt. Indtil det ikke er det mere. Hun begynder at kæmpe med en følelse af, at virkeligheden er forvrænget, og hun bliver besat af at læse de mange trusler på de sociale medier og de endeløse fornærmelser fra hendes dobbeltgængers følgere. Hvorfor har hendes dunkle modstykke valgt en så ekstrem vej? Hvorfor er identitet – alt hvad vi har at modstå verden med – så ustabil? Klein beslutter sig for at finde ud af det ved at forfølge sin dublet ind i en spejlverden, hvor labre wellness-influencere slår sig sammen med ildsprudende propagandister fra det yderste højre (angiveligt med den fælles sag at ”beskytte børn”). Hun linder på låget over vores kultur i et surreelt øjeblik i historien, hvor vi gør os selv til polerede, virtuelle brands, udskammer vores fjender offentligt, ser til mens mængden af deepfakes vokser, og mens hele nationer skrider fra demokrati til noget langt mere dystert. Dette er en bog til tiden og for alle; en dødsens alvorlig sort komedie, som inviterer os til at se os selv i spejlet. En bog for alle, som har prøvet af spilde tiden i internettets kaninhuller; dem som undrer sig over, at politik er blevet så fatalt fordrejet, og dem som søger en vej ud af den kollektive svimmelhed, tilbage til kampen for det, som betyder noget. Naomi Klein (f. 1970) er ansat som lektor i geografi ved University of British Columbia, er en af grundlæggerne og lederne af UBC’s Centre for Climate Justice, og æresprofessor i ’Medier og klima’ ved Rutgers University. Hun er forfatter til en række bøger, blandt andet den internationale bestseller No Logo, der er oversat til mere end 30 sprog. Hendes artikler har været bragt af førende medier verden over, og hun har en fast klumme i The Guardian.

I 2011 oppdager Naomi Klein at hun blir forvekslet med en annen. De deler fornavn, men ikke synspunkter. På denne tiden er «Andre Naomi» - feministforfatteren Naomi Wolf - på vei mot ytterkantene i det amerikanske politiske landskapet. Ti år senere har hun blitt toneangivende for et ytre høyre som stadig vinner terreng, godt hjulpet av fremveksten av sosiale medier og koronapandemien. Tvillingskikkelser har i århundrer blitt forstått som varsler eller budbringere, og for Naomi Klein blir forvekslingen besettende. I et forsøk på å forstå dobbeltgjengerens politiske ferd bestemmer hun seg for å følge etter - inn i en speilet, men uhyggelig fordreid virkelighet, full av farlig informasjonsspredning, myndighetsskepsis, konspirasjonsteoretikere og vaksinekritiske mammabloggere. "Dobbeltgjenger. En reise inn i speilverdenen" kan leses som en guidebok for vår skremmende samtid. Med stort alvor og et kledelig snev av humor og selvironi skriver Naomi Klein for alle som strever med å forstå hvorfor det politiske landskapet har blitt så forvrengt. Finnes det en vei ut av den kollektive svimmelheten? Hva er det på den andre siden av speilglasset som lokker og drar? Og hvordan skal vi føres tilbake til kampen for det som virkelig betyr noe? Kanadiske Naomi Klein er forfatter, journalist og aktivist og en av vår tids største tenkere.

Naomi Klein, una de las periodistas m s influyentes del mundo y autora de bestsellers como No logo y La doctrina del shock, nos ofrece en Doppelganger un an lisis revelador del laberinto de espejos de la pol tica de hoy y de las realidades inciertas del universo digital. Qu pasar a si te despertaras una ma ana y descubrieras que has adquirido otro yo, un doble que casi eres t , pero que en realidad no lo es? Qu pasar a si ese doble compartiera muchas de tus preocupaciones, pero de forma totalmente opuesta, y promoviera aquellas causas contra las que has luchado toda tu vida?Cuando Naomi Klein descubri en las redes a una mujer con su nombre de pila, pero con opiniones da inas y radicalmente diferentes a las suyas, a la que confund an cr nicamente con ella, parec a demasiado rid culo para tom rselo en serio. Hasta que dej de serlo.De repente empez a enfrentarse a una realidad distorsionada, a obsesionarse con las amenazas que recib a en l nea, con los interminables insultos de los seguidores de su doble. Por qu su otra sombra hab a seguido un camino tan extremo? Por qu la identidad --todo lo que tenemos para enfrentarnos al mundo-- puede ser tan inestable?Llena de confusi n y dispuesta a encontrar las respuestas, Klein decidi seguir a su doble en un extra o e ins lito mundo espejo y, al hacerlo, pone al descubierto nuestra propia cultura en este momento surrealista de la historia, en el que nos hemos convertido en pulidas marcas virtuales.Doppelganger es un libro para nuestra poca y para todos nosotros; una comedia negra absolutamente seria que nos invita a enfrentarnos a nuestros reflejos en el espejo. Es para cualquiera que haya perdido horas en el pozo sin fondo que es Internet, que se haya preguntado por qu nuestra pol tica se ha deformado tanto y que quiera salir del v rtigo colectivo y volver a luchar por lo que de verdad importa.

*WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION* *THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**A BOOK OF THE YEAR FOR THE TIMES, NEW YORK TIMES, GUARDIAN, OBSERVER, AND PROSPECT*‘If I had to name a single book that makes sense of these last few dark years, it would be this one’ New York Times‘A deeply compelling read … urgent and necessary’ Evening StandardNaomi Klein, author of era-defining bestsellers, The Shock Doctrine, This Changes Everything and No Logo, is back with her most compulsive and personal book yet: a revelatory journey into the mirror world of our polarised ageWhen Naomi Klein discovered that a woman who shared her first name, but had radically different, harmful views, was getting chronically mistaken for her, it seemed too ridiculous to take seriously. Then suddenly it wasn't. She started to find herself grappling with a distorted sense of reality, becoming obsessed with reading the threats on social media, the endlessly scrolling insults from the followers of her doppelganger. Why had her shadowy other gone down such an extreme path? Why was identity - all we have to meet the world - so unstable?To find out, Klein decided to follow her double into a bizarre, uncanny mirror world: one of conspiracy theories, anti-vaxxers and demagogue hucksters, where soft-focus wellness influencers make common cause with fire-breathing far right propagandists (all in the name of protecting 'the children'). In doing so, she lifts the lid on our own culture during this surreal moment in history, as we turn ourselves into polished virtual brands, publicly shame our enemies, watch as deep fakes proliferate and whole nations flip from democracy to something far more sinister.This is a book for our age and for all of us; a deadly serious dark comedy which invites us to view our reflections in the looking glass. It's for anyone who has lost hours down an internet rabbit hole, who wonders why our politics has become so fatally warped, and who wants a way out of our collective vertigo and back to fighting for what really matters.

Miksi järkevätkin ihmiset sekoavat ja alkavat uskoa valheisiin? Mitä meille on tapahtumassa?Jo vuosia Naomi Klein on sekoitettu sosiaalisessa mediassa Naomi Wolfiin. He ovat hieman samannäköisiä, heillä on sama nimi, ja aiemmin myös samantyyppisiä ajatuksia. Mutta sitten Wolfin ajatusmaailma yllättäen muuttuu. Klein alkaa saada toiselle Naomille tarkoitettuja viestejä, joiden sävy ja sisältö yllättävät hänet. Mitä ihmettä on tapahtunut?Wolf oli arvostettu feministi, kirjailija ja liberaali poliittinen vaikuttaja, mutta nyt hän näyttää vajonneen syvälle Yhdysvaltojen äärioikeistoon. Miten hän päätyi äärioikeiston äänitorveksi ja uskomaan järjettömältä kuulostaviin, jopa vaarallisiin salaliittoteorioihin?Tässä teoksessa Klein kääntää katseensa salaliittoajattelun ja poliittisen vastakkainasettelun kärjistymiseen. Aikamme taloudellisten ja poliittisten kriisien keskellä kahtiajako kiihtyy nopeasti ja sitä ruokitaan ylimmältä poliittiselta taholta. Kuivan humoristiseen ja viiltävään tyyliinsä Klein pyrkii ymmärtämään kaksoisolentoaan, nykymaailmaa – ja samalla itseään.

I en tid där högerextrema rörelser låtsas vara solidariska med arbetarklassen och AI-genererat innehåll suddar ut gränsen mellan äkta och falskt förväntas vi samtidigt vårda våra digitala alias i de sociala mediernas flöden. Författaren Naomi Klein kallar det ett spegelland att navigera i - vår destabiliserade nutid fylld av förvillande skuggspel, digitala återspeglingar och verklighetsförvrängning. När Klein nu konfronterar konspirationstänkandets dubbelexponeringar och artkomplex vänder hon sig bland annat till Sigmund Freud, Jordan Peele, Alfred Hitchcock och bell hooks. Klein analyserar skickligt samtidens förvridna nyhetsrapportering och politiska klimat - och med humor och värme ger hon oss en berättelse som denna gång också går närmare inpå det egna jaget än någonsin förr. Doppelgänger: En färd genom spegelvärlden är en slags guidebok för en illavarslande samtid, för alla oss som förlorat sig i webbflödets kaninhål och som undrar varför vår tids politik blivit så ödesdigert förvrängd. Finns det en väg ut ur denna kollektiva yrsel och hur kan vi återigen kämpa för det som verkligen betyder något?NAOMI KLEIN är en kanadensisk författare, journalist och aktivist - och en av vår tids största tänkare.
