Examines the relationship of evil, action, and judgment in the work of Immanuel Kant, Hannah Arendt, and Jean-François Lyotard.The Shadow of Totalitarianism develops a new way to think about the problem of evil in politics. Beginning with the commonplace idea that the rise of totalitarianism in the twentieth century marked the emergence of a new form of evil, Javier Burdman finds early seeds of thinking about this form in Immanuel Kant's moral philosophy. Far from being an isolated object of inquiry, evil, Burdman argues, has long shaped and been central to philosophical understandings of political action and judgment. Systematically analyzing the relationship between evil, action, and judgment in the work of Kant, Hannah Arendt, and Jean-François Lyotard, The Shadow of Totalitarianism aligns evil in politics with a desire for moral certainty, hence the emphasis on the need to accept and affirm uncertainty in current ethical theories. The careful philosophical analysis through which Burdman develops this inquiry contributes to a better understanding of some of the theoretical complexities involved in the problem of evil and provides conceptual tools with which to approach it.

Al transformar radicalmente la vida personal y colectiva de millones de personas alrededor del mundo, la pandemia de coronavirus sacudió las estructuras más básicas de las formas políticas establecidas y despertó, con ello, la necesidad de volver observar y pensar para orientarnos en un terreno renovado.De allí surge este libro, que reúne diferentes preguntas y abordajes teóricos que buscan contribuir a la comprensión de la pandemia como acontecimiento político. Cada capítulo recoge algunas de las aristas fundamentales del fenómeno, con el objetivo, no solo de comprender su sentido, sino también de contribuir a la elaboración de una reflexión crítica con respecto a las teorías que lo abordan. Es que la interpretación de la pandemia plantea interrogantes que requieren aproximaciones diversas, perspectivas disímiles y capaces de abrir el pensamiento a fenómenos nuevos y en movimiento. En este sentido, los ensayos que conforman La pandemia como acontecimiento político. Aportes teóricos son, a su vez, una conversación entre investigadores de diferentes países y universidades, que intenta proponer herramientas teóricas elocuentes más que respuestas contundentes a los lectores.
