Media in the servie of spectacle: media creation of spectacular reality on the example of the Berlin Wall

Mediji sa svojim neprestanim rastom i tehnološkim naprecima u potpunosti preuzimaju ulogu kreiranja društvene stvarnosti pomoću spektakla koji kao zaleđeni trenutak u povijesti ostavlja svoj neizbrisiv trag na čovječanstvu. Njihov napredak, međutim dovodi do često neprimjetnih društvenih posljedica koje se manifestiraju kasnije, najčešće u obliku pojave hiperrealnosti koji označava proces nestanka granice između stvarnosti i imaginarnog ostavljajući tako prazan prostor koji se ispunjava dovoljno ponovljenom intepretacijom događaja. Nametnuta interpretacija događaja zatim postaje službena istina koja nastaje kao rezultat povezanosti diskursa i moći što omogućuje njezino prevladanje na globalnom planu. S padom Berlinskog zida dolazi se do pobjede prevladavajuće zapadne istine koja proširivanjem svojeg sustava dovodi do procesa globalizacije gdje se pojavljuje disciplinarno društvo u sklopu kojeg spektakl služi samokontrole ljudske svijesti podređujući je dominantnom diskursu koji upravlja njihovim životima.The media, with its constant growth and technological advances, is fully taking on the role of creating social reality through a spectacle that, as a frozen moment in history, leaves its indelible mark on humanity. Their progress, however, leads to often imperceptible social consequences that manifest later, most often in the form of hyperreality that marks the process of the disappearing boundary between reality and the imaginary thus leaving an empty space filled with sufficiently repeated interpretation of events. The imposed interpretation of events then become an official truth that arises as a result of the connection between discourse and the power which enables its overcoming on a global scale. With the fall of the Berlin Wall comes the victory of the prevailing Western truth which by expanding its system leads to a process of globalization where a disciplinary society emerges in which the spectacle serves as the self-control of human consciousness by subordinating it to the dominant discourse that governs their lives
