Beskrivning
The twentieth century was the century of the deconstruction of all absolutes: of liberation understood as a critique of every meaningful structure. In this sense, conflict was understood as an instrument of the rupture of every form, institution and community. Niccolo Machiavelli is the first in our tradition to think about the productivity of political conflict its capacity, on the model of ancient Rome, to construct new orders, institutions and forms of life. Francesco Marchesi offers an original reading of Machiavellian thought as well as a critique of some of the most influential contemporary theories of conflict including Foucault, Schmitt, Arendt, Lacan and Althusser. In doing so, he proposes an innovative, conflictual political ontology that, with Machiavelli, is capable of conceiving the affirmative, and not only deconstructive, power of conflict.

Recensioner i media

At the crossroads between classical philosophy and the contemporary condition, Francesco Marchesi designs a new ontology in the name of Machiavelli. Critically covering the most recent philosophical-political debate, it proposes a highly innovative theoretical turn, capable of articulating order and conflict, institution and movement, power and life. His book constitutes an important philosophical and political contribution.
