Abstract
SOLIS MARTIN, M. Yanina. A New Body for the Non-Capitalist Subject. A Dialogue between Post-Foundationalism and Vladimir Safatle’s “Dialectical Vitalism”. Prax. filos. [online]. 2023, n.57, e20412485. Epub July 28, 2023. ISSN 0120-4688. https://doi.org/10.25100/pfilosofica.v0i57.12485.
This article seeks to establish a productive dialogue between the major notions of post-foundational political thought -as conceived by Jean Luc-Nancy, Alain Badiou, Claude Lefort, and Ernesto Laclau- and what I have termed “dialectical vitalism” in the works of Brazilian philosopher Vladimir Safatle. It seeks to consider Safatle’s work in O circuito dos afetos (2016) and A paixão do negativo (2006) as enabling the inscription of the major postfoundational axiom -the absence of an ultimate foundation- on a subject’s psycho-affective constitution. Through this operation, an emancipatory postfoundational biopolitics could arise, facilitating the emergence of new bodies, new forms of subjectification.
Keywords : Post-foundational political thought; Biopolitics; Dialectical vitalism; Psychoanalysis; The moment of the political.
