CAPONA GONZALEZ, DANIELA. THE POLITICAL ROLE OF SUPERSTITION AND DESIRE IN SPINOZA CURRENT CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING CAPITALISM. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2018, vol.67, n.168, pp.177-197. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v67n168.59275.

The article analyzes Spinoza's concept of superstition as a political mechanism that alters affective logic and, therefore, that of desire, establishing determined forms of action and thought. In this context, we suggest a reading of the concept's development, taking into account the notions of fetishism in Marx, capitalist religion in Benjamin, spectacle in Debord, and moral discourse in Coccia, in order to show how superstition operates in the age of capitalism.

Palavras-chave : capitalism; desire; logic of inversion; commodities; superstition.
