inCf #5 - Forbidden

The Forbidden. There is a fascinating distinction between what is forbidden and what is illegal. This lies in the difference between context and authority. Context often shapes the way we perceive what is forbidden. Authority, on the other hand, dictates the rules we choose to follow or reject. If everything that is illegal is by definition forbidden, not everything that is forbidden is illegal. In this fifth issue, we wanted to explore this nuance, which allowed us to delve into a wide variety of ideas and interpretations, bringing together content ranging from art to food, to the history of its representation, and to contemporary phenomena such as the darkest corners of the dark web.
In doing so, we have travelled through broad and specific territories, each with the aim of highlighting those forbidden aspects that define our society today. Thus we ask ourselves: what is forbidden today?
