The regret

by Ana Bazac One of the most neglected concepts by philosophy was and is the regret. The reason is the huge content of personal responsibility towards the phenomena contemplated with sorrow. And for the regret is not only a sentiment of sadness related to what had happened – or could have happened but did not – […]

Stupor

by Ana Bazac Times, and now the capitalist system crisis we live in, push to the prominence of some concepts instead of the former ones. As the crisis emphasizes contradictions and situations no one could conceive and believe before, common people – rather than the philosophers – arrive to feel as urgent concepts the intolerable, […]

Time of science, time of man

by Ana Bazac   I   One of the most frequent and, at the same time, dangerous epistemological faults of the contemporary thinkers – and indeed, only these ones are blind, since the former have only discovered the significances of time – is the homogenization of situations, images and concepts related to man. Philosophy works, […]

The right of the multitude (III): the right to construct alternatives

by Ana Bazac   I   Do people have nowadays the right to oppose, to protest? Not even this right, since not only some categories are forbidden to strike, to unionize, to protest, but – in fact, much more important – any protest has no longer real worth. Real opposition protests do not have power/real […]

The right of the multitude (II): the right to dissidence

by Ana Bazac     I   Actually, my paper related to the right of the multitude was motivated by the formidable event generated by Edward Snowden in the world politics. As we know, the mainstream ideology has focused on two arguments: that Edward Snowden would be a traitor and that he does not deserve […]

The right of the multitude (I): Citizenship and the right to asylum

by Ana Bazac   I   As we know, a citizen is a member of a certain (political) community. Just in virtue of this membership, the citizen is defended from the other (inimical laws, inimical communities). Obviously, not his unique individuality is defended, but his the quality of citizen: only this quality is considered valuable […]

Oportunismul Intelectualilor [VII]

de Ana Bazac   În cele de până acum a avut loc un vol d’oiseau[1] deasupra unor momente istorice ale comportamentului oportunist, în esenţă al intelectualilor. Oportunismul poate fi analizat şi în cheie de psihologie socială – comportament individual determinat de cauze sociale[2] în condiţiile societăţilor moderne bazate pe dominaţie-supunere  şi, desigur, în cheie de […]

Oportunismul Intelectualilor [VI]

de Ana Bazac   Determinarea materială a intelectualilor şi de aici, oportunismul majoritar, sunt, în fond, clare. Aceste fenomene explică structurarea teoriilor de legitimare a statu quo. Diferenţa între teoriile de legitimare este foarte importantă: clasica diferenţă între conservatori – care „nu văd” criza şi folosesc ca principal mod de prezervare a raporturilor structurale constrângerea […]

Oportunismul Intelectualilor [V]

de Ana Bazac     Iar în stalinism, dacă majoritatea intelectualilor a fost, din nou, conformistă – şi pentru că stalinismul a fost un sistem economico-social non-socialist (un izotop al capitalismului) deci bazat pe dominaţie-supunere şi aservirea intelectualilor, dar şi inclusiv datorită faptului că, în ţările slab dezvoltate unde a avut loc stalinismul, modernizarea şi […]

Oportunismul Intelectualilor [IV]

de Ana Bazac   Statornicirea modernităţii, de la revoluţiile burgheze începând, a generat transformări de substanţă în categoria intelectualilor. În primul rând, revoluţia industrială şi constituirea administraţiei şi instituţiilor moderne de integrare socială a dus la creşterea numărului intelectualilor, şi nu numai a oamenilor ştiutori de carte conform standardelor momentelor. Iar deoarece modernizarea a avut […]
