Has any news story today made you feel uneasy? What is the reason for your disagreement or agreement? Enrique Díaz Álvarez (Mexico) says in Lo intolerable that we have broadened our tolerance threshold so much that we have normalised the unacceptable. And Cristina Monge (Spain) —author of Contra el descontento— says that there is a build-up of social discontent that has led us to question democracy itself. Winners of the 2021 Anagrama Essay Prize and the 2026 Paidós Prize respectively, both thinkers discuss the risks of complacency with the BBC Mundo journalist Daniel Pardo (Colombia) as they seek a way out of this situation.
