Pensiero e strategia. Su di alcuni legami tra teoria e azione politica al tempo del covid-19

Abstract

This article aims to illustrate some potential approaches to the social crisis due to the pandemic: through highlighting some “basic” differences between the philosophical thought and the ambition of the political strategy, it analyses the theoretical prerequisites of a purely political program as the one that has been advocated in France by a theorist and a politician such as Jean-Luc Mélenchon. It is likely that it will be noticed that the two approaches – the long range reflection and the political strategy- are neither equal by themselves nor forcedly opposite, neither in contradiction nor necessarily incompatible, neither impossible to be put together nor actually really in a dialogue.
