For the first time in history, the human species has acquired sufficient power to destroy itself, either by the use of weapons of mass destruction or by ecological collapse.
Therefore, we must radically rethink our institutions, our ways of life and our categories of thought.
We need new symbolic maps to configure our relationship with the world differently, with the plurality of our fellow human beings and with our own personal identity.
In that direction move the "cosmo-poetic essays" assembled here.
Philosophy is a cosmo-pragmatic activity, because it tries to articulate with each other what the ancient Greeks called the kosmos, the polis and the ethos.
This book addresses, from this perspective, some of the great mutations of global society.
He begins by questioning the Eurocentrism of the Western philosophical tradition;
deals with the debate on the concepts of biopolitics, totalitarianism and globalization;
defends the migrant condition of the human being as a framework to understand current migrations;
analyzes the crisis of democracy in the global era;
and, finally, it raises the possibility of building a democracy without borders, cosmopolitan and ecological.
