dc.description.abstractThis article offers an analysis of "social stupidity": the generation of publics mobilized in a compromised manner as a result of a complex web of forces that compromises the potential for intelligent collective inquiry. The article juxtaposes this phenomenon with the notion of "social intelligence" offered by John Dewey and the concept of the "apparatus" as treated by Michel Foucault.
