Abstract

As everyone knows by now, a landscape is a cultural construct that has undergone changeable and sundry forms of aesthetization. In the last decade, capitalistic forms of production have deeply changed their features. I will try to argue that in our time, because of new anthropological and cultural scenes, the forms of production and consumption have undergone a process of aesthetization. Aesthetization creates a new ontological status for the idea of reality and is also responsible for significant changes in the mechanisms of political legitimacy.
