The Place of Possibility

Autor Diego Fusaro
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 sep 2017
One difference between the economic system in which we live and the systems of the past is that the former does not claim to be perfect. It merely denies the existence of alternatives. For the first time, power does not manifest its qualities, but simply claims that its nature is inevitable. Diego Fusaro's new essay is a strong rejection, like a whiplash, of the rhetorical claim that reality is an immutable situation and of the habit of accepting it lying down instead of building a better one. This rhetoric gives rise to the principal commandment of Market Monotheism: "thou shalt have no other society before this " The first task of a philosophy of resistance is to rethink the world as history and possibility, to create the conditions according to which men rediscover themselves as passionate rebels in search of a different and better future. Starting from this revolutionary thought, one can struggle against economic fanaticism and for a fair "city of the future", a place common to all humanity in which each and every one is equally free compared to all the others.

Notă biografică

Diego Fusaro (Turin, Italy, 1983) teaches History of Philosophy at the Institute for Higher Strategic and Political Studies, Milan, Italy. He studies the philosophy of history and the structures of historical temporality, particularly focusing on Fichte, Hegel, Marx and the German 'history of concepts'. He is the director of the I Cento Talleri series on philosophy published by Il Prato and is the editor of the online project La filosofia e i suoi eroi (Philosophy and its heroes - www.filosofico.net). He founded the association and review Interesse Nazionale (National Interest - www.interessenazionale.net). He writes for the Italian newspapers La Stampa and Il Fatto Quotidiano and makes frequent appearances on Italian TV, sharing his political analyses with the general public. Whereas Enrico Galavotti, in his Esegeti di Marx (2015), describes Diego Fusaro as 'the rising star of contemporary Italian Marxist philosophy', Fusaro defines himself as an 'independent disciple of Hegel and Marx'. In 2016, he gave a conference on Gramsci at Harvard University.
