Konsenzus bez pokrića

Neven Sesardić

Consensus Without Cover (2022) by Neven Sesardić, a Croatian philosopher, is a provocative book that critically questions widely accepted social beliefs, arguing that they are often not based on solid arguments, but on ideology, pressure, or conformism.

Sesardić introduces the concept of "consensus without cover" - an apparent agreement that is not based on logic or evidence, but on social taboos or political indoctrination. For example, he criticizes the restriction of free speech under the pretext of combating hate speech and questions the idealization of education as a universal solution. He also considers how ideas such as equality or social justice are imposed without critical examination. Using witty irony and scientific sources, Sesardić challenges readers to question dogmas, such as the belief that majority agreement guarantees truth.

The book has been praised for its originality and logical clarity, but criticized for its occasional sharpness and focus on a right-wing perspective. It is intended for intellectually curious readers who want to think outside the mainstream narrative. Sesardić encourages rational skepticism towards "unquestionable truths" and advocates a scientific approach to the search for truth.

The book consists of eight chapters that analyze topics such as freedom of speech, education, migration, the myth of 1968, the death penalty, Camus' philosophy, terrorist rights and the intellectual biography of Gajo Petrović.
