We will develop these notions present in Benjamin in order to consider the different vanishing points that the links of these concepts propitiated for the study of his time and that were key in their current receptions in relation to memory studies. We consider the importance of communication as a binding element between narration and experience, carrying out a critical analysis of narration and experience as conceptual and political vectors that constitute the commons and intersubjectivity. We will also inquire into the notion of justice coined by Benjamin and its link with experience, narration and testimony, within the framework of the critique of modernity carried out by the so called “post-war philosophers” in a tradition of “disenchantment of the world” and within the framework of Critical Theory. Este artículo indaga en los modos posibles de abordar en la obra de Walter Benjamin el núcleo analítico constituido por la experiencia y la narración, en tanto una praxis social y una teoría crítica a la modernidad donde se esboza un modo de comprender la justicia, a partir de la experiencia comunicable de la narración. Desarrollaremos estas nociones para considerar los distintos puntos de fuga que los enlaces de estos conceptos propiciaron para el estudio de su época y que fueron claves en sus recepciones actuales en relación a los estudios de memoria. Consideramos la importancia de la comunicación como elemento vinculante entre la narración y la experiencia, realizando un análisis crítico en torno a la narración y la experiencia como vectores conceptuales y políticos constitutivos de lo común y de la intersubjetividad. Indagaremos también en la noción de justicia acuñada por Benjamin y su vinculación con la experiencia, la narración y el testimonio, en el marco de la crítica a la modernidad que realizan los llamados “filósofos de posguerra” en una tradición de “desencantamiento del mundo” y en el marco de la Teoría crítica.
