Woke is a 'Nom de Guerre'

The woke movement, or, to use a more appropriate name, the woke injunction, is a war cry that has summoned new forms of struggle and antagonisms to the public space where exacerbated stances are taken. Although in a serene manner, the two opposing texts in this section participate in this division: that of the Belgian writer and philosopher Véronique Bergen, who sees in 'wokism' a legitimate desire for emancipation that, however, 'falls into the opposite', and that by Carolina Flores, Portuguese philosopher and researcher at the University of California at Santa Cruz, who conducts the anti-woke critique.
