PREMIO PAIDÓS 2026

UN ENSAYO LÚCIDO SOBRE LOS MALESTARES QUE ATRAVIESAN NUESTRAS DEMOCRACIAS Y UNA INVITACIÓN URGENTE A RECONSTRUIR LA CONFIANZA, EL DIÁLOGO Y EL FUTURO COMÚN.

Los malestares sociales que se han ido acumulando durante décadas están cristalizando hoy en un descontento profundo que pone en cuestión los propios fundamentos de la convivencia democrática, la confianza en las instituciones y la idea de futuro. En este contexto, la pregunta se impone: ¿qué podemos hacer?

En Contra el descontento, Cristina Monge, socióloga, profesora universitaria y una de las analistas más influyentes del panorama político español, ofrece una lectura crítica y, al final, esperanzadora de este malestar colectivo. Con un tono claro y sin renunciar a la profundidad analítica, recorre los principales desafíos del siglo XXI: la precariedad, la soledad digital, la crisis ecológica y la desafección de la ciudadanía hacia las instituciones y sus representantes. A través de este recorrido, traza la radiografía de una sociedad cansada, atemorizada e incapaz de imaginar otros caminos.

Lejos del pesimismo o la nostalgia, este libro reivindica la necesidad de recuperar la conversación pública, defender los hechos ciertos en la era de la posverdad y reconstruir un nuevo contrato social basado en la cooperación, la justicia y la sostenibilidad mediante alianzas para crear futuros deseables. Contra el descontento es un manifiesto por una democracia más fuerte y un futuro compartido que aún están a nuestro alcance.

Ideal para los lectores de Daniel Innerarity o Byung-Chul Han.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

PAIDÓS PRIZE 2026

A LUCID ESSAY ON THE TROUBLES AFFECTING OUR DEMOCRACIES AND AN URGENT CALL TO REBUILD TRUST, DIALOGUE, AND A SHARED FUTURE.

The social unrest accumulated over decades is now crystallizing into a profound discontent that questions the very foundations of democratic coexistence, trust in institutions, and the idea of the future. In this context, the question arises: what can we do?

In Contra el descontento, Cristina Monge, sociologist, university professor, and one of the most influential analysts in Spain's political landscape, offers a critical yet ultimately hopeful reading of this collective malaise. With clarity and analytical depth, she explores the major challenges of the twenty-first century: precariousness, digital loneliness, the ecological crisis, and citizens' disaffection toward institutions and their representatives. Through this journey, she portrays a society that is weary, fearful, and unable to imagine alternative paths.

Far from pessimism or nostalgia, this book defends the need to recover public conversation, uphold facts in the era of post-truth, and rebuild a new social contract based on cooperation, justice, and sustainability through alliances to create desirable futures. Contra el descontento is a manifesto for a stronger democracy and a shared future that is still within our reach.

Ideal for readers of Daniel Innerarity or Byung-Chul Han.

Well made, light fabric. Waist doesn't roll.
These bamboo underwear really do keep you cool. They fit true to size, and wear easily. the wide elastic waist band doesn't roll on me. They are comfortable to wear, washed and dried easily. The material has some stretch to it, but not a lot. Well made, no stray strings. Perfect fit for me. Just what I was looking for.

Good quality, smooth feel
I got these briefs so recently that have washed just one pair so far. First off, these are very comfortable, the material is soft & bordering silky, good quality sewing. Wash well and minimal if any shrinkage. They do come a bit wrinkled from the dryer but hey, these are underwear and will go on smoothly. If it were a t-shirt, I would look sloppy. I feel the sizing is accurate. No rolling and these don't announce themselves under clothing. Planning on getting more of these boxers and replacing my old panties.

A little snug on the thighs
Size: Medium, Color: Multicoloured G (5-pack)
Super comfy, soft and thin. For reference, I'm 5'6", 135, athletic build. I bought medium. I almost returned them because I thought they were a bit too snug on my thighs, and my thighs are not large at all. I was concerned about panty lines under snug clothing. But, because they're thin, I figured they would probably stretch, so I kept them. So far, I've only worn them under a night shirt, but they're super comfortable and they dont ride up at all. Very nice, but if your thighs are a little thick, you probably won't like them.

Functional + Sexy
Size: Small, Color: Multicoloured E-(5-pack), Size: Small, Color: Multicoloured E-(5-pack)
Not only do these feel good, my husband can’t keep his hands off me. They fit so good and are soft. I change into these to sleep but also just use them as shorts to wear around the house. They’re comfortable and don’t slide around. I got a size small and I’m 100lbs.

Finally!
Size: X-Large, Color: All Black D (5-pack)
Finally, comfortable underwear that don’t end up giving me a wedgie. I have a round booty and most cuts of underwear end up shifting as I walk and sit. The hem of the underwear comes right under my cheeks and the lightweight material ensures there’s no panty line and no shifting to where I don’t want them! I’m definitely purchasing more.
