BLENGINO, Luis Félix. Posthistory, Philosophy and Political Spirituality. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2009, vol.58, n.139, pp.109-120. ISSN 0120-0062.

This paper raises the issue of the statute of philosophy in what has been called posthistory, from an approach that intends to articulate Foucault's diagnosis of the present with Rancière's political philosophy. We sustain that the so called postphilosophy is understood as spirituality in the age of the ending metanarratives, and coincides with the age of the expanding biopolitical governmental logic. Therefore, philosophy's task, according to Foucault, would become a practical one, that is to say, spiritual. We study this spirituality in its political aspect.
