Teruel, Andrea capitalism revolution macropolitics micropolitics symptomatic materialism capitalismo revolución macropolítica micropolítica materialismo sintomático The writing tense the current clinical picture of apathy that left thinking has entered in recent decades - whose leitmotif seems to be reduced to the promotion of adaptable and healthy ways of life in an irrevocable capitalism - diverting its gaze towards the symptomatic or the sick of culture. The notion of symptomatic materialism is developed with the intention of crossing the limits that stopped the revolutionary impulses of the historical materialism of the early twentieth century (Marxism-Leninism) and the subsequent developments around biopolitics and the production of subjectivity of french thought (Foucault, Deleuze, Guattari). Freely combining the reading of Santiago López Petit, Diego Stulwark, Peter Sloterdijk and Georges Bataille, symptomatic materialism is presented here as an ethical-political alternative that links the historical split between macropolitics and micropolitics with the intention of going beyond the conformisms in which it seems critical thinking has stagnated. Faced with the therapeutic and cosmetic materialism that abounds in intellectual agendas – dependent on self-care and an aesthetic of existence – symptomatic materialism gives rise to the anomalous as an attempt to revolt the established order. El escrito busca tensar el actual cuadro clínico de abulia al que ingresó en las últimas décadas el pensamiento de izquierda –cuyo leitmotiv parece haberse reducido a la promoción de formas de vida adaptables y saludables en un capitalismo irrevocable – desviando la mirada hacia lo sintomático o lo enfermo de la cultura. Se desarrolla la noción de materialismo sintomático con la intención de franquear los límites que frenaron los impulsos revolucionarios tanto del materialismo histórico de principios del siglo XX (marxismo-leninismo) como de los posteriores desarrollos en torno a la biopolítica y la producción de subjetividad del pensamiento francés de las décadas del 60 y 70 (Foucault, Deleuze, Guattari). Conjugando libremente la lectura de Santiago López Petit, Diego Sztulwark, Peter Sloterdijk y Georges Bataille, el materialismo sintomático se presenta aquí como una alternativa ético-política que enlaza la escisión histórica entre la macropolítica y la micropolítica con la intención de ir más allá de los conformismos en los que se habría estancado el pensamiento crítico. Ante un materialismo terapéutico y cosmético que abunda en las agendas intelectuales –pendiente del cuidado de sí y de una estética de la existencia– el materialismo sintomático emerge dando lugar a lo anómalo como intento de sublevar el orden establecido.

The writing tense the current clinical picture of apathy that left thinking has entered in recent decades - whose leitmotif seems to be reduced to the promotion of adaptable and healthy ways of life in an irrevocable capitalism - diverting its gaze towards the symptomatic or the sick of culture. The notion of symptomatic materialism is developed with the intention of crossing the limits that stopped the revolutionary impulses of the historical materialism of the early twentieth century (Marxism-Leninism) and the subsequent developments around biopolitics and the production of subjectivity of french thought (Foucault, Deleuze, Guattari). Freely combining the reading of Santiago López Petit, Diego Stulwark, Peter Sloterdijk and Georges Bataille, symptomatic materialism is presented here as an ethical-political alternative that links the historical split between macropolitics and micropolitics with the intention of going beyond the conformisms in which it seems critical thinking has stagnated. Faced with the therapeutic and cosmetic materialism that abounds in intellectual agendas – dependent on self-care and an aesthetic of existence – symptomatic materialism gives rise to the anomalous as an attempt to revolt the established order. |
