The following Ph.D. thesis points up the culture of indifference in contemporary times, the multiple reflections of the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001 and the global terrorism as objects of research. The September 11th event, has proved to be the landmark for the current barbarism, exposing therefore the fractures of an unequal and mortally wounded by the moral indifference world. My first hypothesis related to the culture of indifference is based on the perception that terrorism, intolerance, fear and indifference consist in the current symptoms of malaise present in the human civilization, as defined by Freud in his 1929 s "Civilization and its discontents , in which he successfully shows the human suffering regarding the apathy, wars and social violence. Another view would refer to the acceptance of indifference, among the symptoms above, as a social pathology as well as the prove of a purchaser and predatory society, in which the authors express their "alienation in relation to the others, as moral beings i.e. attitudes of detachment, whose experienced hostility or persecution are replaced by the disqualification of the author, resulting in more violence and indifference. This study was conducted at the Social Psychology Pos-Graduate Center, in the State University of Rio de Janeiro. The investigation method used is based on the literature search-analytical transdisciplinary supported by complexity. The theoretical foundation was based on extensive bibliography, featuring authors such as Zizek, Lévinas, Baudrillard, Badiou, Sontag, Lipovetsky, Derrida, Morin, Bauman, Levi and other theorists of social sciences. Four key concepts were articulated throughout the work and guided the theoretical aspects as well as the careful analysis and interpretation of books, periodicals, legal texts, documents, constitutions, sites, statutes, laws, films and documentaries: the culture of indifference, the event of September 11th, 2001 as well as its socio-political effects and the global terrorism
