Description
Este artículo trabaja los aportes que Hannah Arendt y Norbert Elias han realizado a la teoría política moderna con respecto al concepto de poder, desde la crítica a la coacción como rasgo definitorio de la política. Las capacidades de asociación colectiva y de autodeterminación de la identidad se entenderán como los rasgos centrales de la contra-argumentación política construida como alternativa epistemológica. El registro de la intersubjetividad y los procesos de subjetivación serán los momentos definitivos para la concreción del poder en tanto que capacidad de resistencia de las comunidades y los individuos frente a la exterioridad de la coerción estatal.
This article examines the contributions that Hannah Arendt and Norbert Elias have made to modern political theory with respect to the concept of power, based on the critique of coercion as a defining trait of politics. The capacities of collective association and self-determination of identity are understood as the central traits of political counter-argumentation, constructed as an epistemological alternative. The appearance of inter-subjectivity and the processes of subjectivization constitute the definitive moments for the realization of power, in terms of communities’ and individuals ‘capacity for resistance to the exteriority of state coercion.
