Deparei com uma citação de Betty Friedan (uma autora feminista que desconhecia), que achei perfeita como descrição do "problem that has no name" que afecta de forma tão generalizada a nossa sociedade actual:
the ubiquitous malaise, tension, and anxiousness that results from the gap between the expectations of a fulfilling life and the realities of a stifling existence
(Although Friedan was referring to the malaise of housewives during the 1950s, the unnamed problem she noted is far more widespread in the general population of contemporary societies)
