Sumario:Presentation by Camille Louis Étienne Tassin (1955-2018) was a great French philosopher and thinker who was inspired by the works of Hannah Arendt, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Jan Patočka, among others. He aimed to create a fine political phenomenology that could help him reflect on the most urgent questions of our time. We chose for this first issue of Pescadora a pearl that he left us in one of his last interventions. Written together with Camille Louis –filmmaker and activist for the rights of exiled people– this text represents a series of public speeches that the philosopher made in the context of the so-called “migratory crisis” denouncing the policy of exclusion and expulsion from Europe and in particular of the French Republic, which earned him great criticism from colleagues and politicians. We consider this type of intervention and involvement one of the author's most Arendtian gestures. We chose to commemorate him in this way.
