Summary/Abstract: The social philosophy associated with the end of the social by Jean Baudrillard describes a counterweight to that “statistical crystal ball” that sociologists and politicians count on, and Baudillard’s work as a whole has been hastily identified as “sociology” rather than philosophy as constituted in fact. In the “shadow” of “the silent majorities” contributes something more than a simple analysis of the social and the nature of the phenomenon called “the mass”. The work represents a philosophical, political and poetic manifesto against political illusions, describing contemporary realities dissolving for meaning and sociality, for politics and politics, associated with the “end of ideologies”. Baudrillard is a philosopher of meanings and their elusive dance in a persistent contemporary hyperreality of uniformities, affirming and reaffirming our daily kingdom of the “transparent” evil, the mark of the endlessly unfirming world in which we are still living.
