Abstract

En este articulo, la autora transita por las huellas del sujeto moderno para reflexionar acerca de las condiciones de la sociedad actual, caracterizada por el desvanecimiento de los valores del humanismo, ocasionando posiciones nihilistas no identificadas, necesariamente, con la nietzscheana. Al contrario, advierte sobre la urgencia de plantear un nihilismo dialéctico que revele la historicidad de principios como democracia, igualdad, justicia, libertad, respeto a la naturaleza, paz, animalismo, especismo, entre otros; y que, a la vez, muestre su constante actualidad para escapar de la petrificación que ocasiona el ejercicio del poder. Nihilismo dialéctico que no desconoce las luchas históricas de los condenados por el capital, sino que las actualiza en dirección contraria al sistema neoliberal.

Alternate abstract:

In this article, the author goes through the traces of the modern subject to reflect on the conditions of current society, characterized by the fading of the values of humanism, causing nihilistic positions not necessarily identified with the nietzschean one. On the contrary, he warns about the urgency of proposing a dialectical nihilism that reveals the historicity of principles such as democracy, equality, justice, freedom, respect for nature, peace, animalism, speciesism, among others; and that, at the same time, shows its constant actuality to escape from the petrification caused by the exercise of power. Dialectical nihilism that does not ignore the historical struggles of those condemned by capital, but updates them in the opposite direction to the neoliberal system.
