Abstract
¿Acaso estamos en condiciones de reinventar la democracia más allá de la voluntad de
poder y de la demanda política como suplementos a la creciente tecnificación entre
mundo y vida? No hay dudas que hoy nos encontramos en un
interregnum
que se ha
desentendido de las categorías y las formas políticas heredadas de la Modernidad, y que
Carl Schmitt identificó con el ordenamiento del Katechon. Partiendo de la crisis de la
legitimidad y la ruina de las economías hegemónicas que organizan nuestra época, este
artículo avanza varias claves para lo que llamamos reflexión infrapolítica, que busca dar
un paso atrás con respecto a las formulaciones totales, sean las teológicas políticas o las
diferentes formas de subjetivismo. Lo que llamamos reflexión infrapolítica, que asume la
diferencia ontológica y la singularidad del estilo, busca preparar una democracia capaz
de reinventar un sentido de igualdad desde lo inconmensurable. Por otra parte, este
ensayo también introduce una constelación de estudiosos que asumen la reflexión
infrapolítica desde estilos y problemáticas concretas
Can we reinvent a form of democracy beyond the will to power and political claims as supplements to the ever-increasing technical arrangement between world and life? There is no doubt that today we are living in an interregnum that has radically dissociated itself from the political categories and forms inherited from the architectonics of modernity, which Carl Schmitt identified with the sovereign ordering of the Katechon. While confronting the ruin of legitimacy and hegemonies that organize the political in our epoch, this article advances the notion of “infrapolitical reflection” as a step back from the closure of political theologies and subjectivist determinations of thought. What we call infrapolitical reflection prepares the grounds for thinking a democracy committed to a radicalization of incommensurable equality in the wake of nihilism. On the other hand, this essay also introduces a constellation of scholars who enter in relation with infrapolitical thought from very concrete perspectives and styles.
