Translated title:
The consequences of the alienation that television and the Internet have in postmodern society and the transcendence of orthodox communication theology
Summary:
The rapid development of technological media, the need for faster communication and information have created a fertile ground for the flourishing of the mass media. The present paper highlights the alienating role of television and the Internet in the modern age and the negative impacts of their use, which result in misleading public opinion through misinformation and distorted view of events, but also in the transformation of the human being to a weakling. Both Neil Postman in his books "Technopoly" and "Amusing Ourselves to Death" and Guy Debord in his book "Society of Spectacle" are concerned about the penetration of spectacle in all facets of human life. Ultimately, transcendence will be achieved through Orthodox Communication Theology, in order for man to be able to embrace the ideals and moral values that govern his life and lead him to spiritual fulfillment.
