A parody of action : Politics and pantomime in Agamben's critique of Arendt
2021
Introduction
2022
In the introduction to the volume, the editors explain the overarching aim of the volume and contextualize the main themes of its chapters. Even if the notions of biopolitics and biopower have played a crucial role in philosophy, the humanities, and the social sciences over the last decades, they have been used in various and at times diverging senses, which has also produced different narratives about the history of biopolitics. The main aim of the volume is to clarify whether and to what extent the concept of biopolitics is applicable to antiquity. To answer such questions, the chapters collected in the volume address three main topics, namely the possible presence of biopolitical discour…
The impurity of praxis : Arendt and Agamben
2023
AbstractIf politics is understood as a foundational and open-ended activity, a general problem that arises from such a framing concerns the question of how to sustain the possibility of continuous openings without converting action into permanence and closure.

2020
This paper compares two influential but conflicting contemporary models of politics as an activity: those of Hannah Arendt and Alain Badiou. It discovers the fundamental difference between their approaches to politics in their opposing evaluations of the contemporary political significance of the legacy of Plato, Platonism, and the Platonic Idea. Karl Popper’s and Arendt’s analyses of the inherently ideological nature of totalitarianism are contrasted with Badiou’s vindication of an ideological “politics of the Idea.” Arendt and Badiou are shown to share an understanding of politics as a realm for the human deployment of novelty and world-transformation. Their key disagreement concerns the …
Dibattere del bene: una difesa fenomenologica della ragion pratica
2021
Nel nostro tempo, il corretto dibattere appare sempre più raro, in particolare quando sono in gioco temi come il bene, i valori, la libertà. Il testo mette in luce alcune conseguenze per l’educazione della contemporanea rinuncia all’esercizio della ragion pratica. Nelle r argomentazioni presentate é costante il riferimento all’etica fenomenologia e in particolare al pensiero di Hannah Arendt e alle sue ascendenze kantiane.
