Abstract
The discussions presented in this article seek to offer critical notes for the debate on the particularities of social barbarism in our current situation. The main objective of the study has a background set on the implications socially caused with the implantation of capitalism in the search for the maintenance of the current hegemonic order. The present work is composed by a qualitative bibliographic research. The structure of the article is based on a brief analysis of capitalism, then we approach conservatism as an instrument of the capital and, finally, we present some of its expressions in contemporary times. The study made it possible to point out that this phenomenon builds true social barbarism, understood as a naturalization of the expressions of the social issue, contempt for immigrants, suppression of rights, antagonism towards human rights, discrimination of race, gender, religion and sexuality, among others, configuring a real trivialization of human life.
