The next OSSO & DDI online talk is on Wednesday! November 5 | 16.00-17.00 EET Pilar Garcés-Conejos Blitvich (UNC Charlotte) Forgiveness? in Post-Digital Societies: A Technosocial and Metapragmatic Perspective Join the Zoom room: tinyurl.com/talkddi @ylvabiri.bsky.social @lulind.bsky.social
This talk explores whether destigmatization and reintegration (Begner, 1987) after scandal and cancellation (Garcés-Conejos Blitvich, 2024) are viable in the post-digital era (Blommaert, 2019). More specifically, it examines the metapragmatics of forgiveness, approached as a form of moral repair, that is, the re-establishment of a moral relationship between offender and offendee (Urban Walker, 2006; Griswold, 2007). The guiding question is as follows: is post-digital redemption feasible (Ambrose et al., 2012) given the persistence, searchability, shareability and visibility of digital content, all of which make forgetting structurally difficult (Bös & Kleinke, 2017)? This remains an understudied topic from a discursive-pragmatic perspective, despite its significance: social media platforms and their algorithms capitalize on conflict and moral transgression, amplifying negatively valenced behaviors as potent engagement tools in the attention economy (Nieborg & Poell, 2018). Forgiveness, by contrast, is a positively valenced practice, less algorithmically rewarded yet fundamental for understanding repair and coexistence in today’s highly polarized societies (Keohane, 2024).
