Resumo: In 2007, foreign and Brazilian newspapers rejoiced in offering top headlines to British businessman and journalist based in the United States, Andrew Keen, on behalf of The Cult of the Amateur, a book in which he criticizes the "great seduction" of the Web 2.0. It appears to establish a welcome polemic in these times of unconditional glorification of the "wisdom of the multitude," both in media and in academia. After reading it, however, one can conclude that the only positive aspect in Keen's book is to have evidenced the need for a serious discussion about the status of knowledge and professionalism in contemporary culture.

Trata-se, aparentemente, de uma obra que instaura uma polêmica bem-vinda nestes tempos de glorificação incondicional da “sabedoria da multidão”, tanto na mídia quanto na academia. Após a leitura, porém, conclui-se que o único aspecto positivo no livro de Keen é ter evidenciado a necessidade de uma discussão séria sobre o estatuto do conhecimento e do profissionalismo na cultura contemporânea.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2008-11-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/article/view/442710.15448/1980-3729.2008.36.4427Revista FAMECOS; Vol. 15 No. 36 (2008); 131-132Revista FAMECOS; Vol. 15 Núm. 36 (2008); 131-132Revista FAMECOS; v. 15 n. 36 (2008); 131-1321980-37291415-054910.15448/1980-3729.2008.36reponame:Revista FAMECOS: Mídia cultura e tecnologiainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/article/view/4427/3327Träsel, Marceloinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-08-04T18:59:08Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/4427Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecosPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/revistafamecos/oai||revistafamecos@gmail.com1980-37291980-3729opendoar:2021-08-04T18:59:08Revista FAMECOS: Mídia cultura e tecnologia - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
