La perspectiva política de Byung-Chul Han y su comprensión de la alteridad

In the following work we will develop a problematization of the concept of otherness in various descriptions of Western societies in the work of Byung-Chul Han. In particular, we seek to account for some tensions between the traditional consideration of the ego or the subject and the understanding of the contrasting alterity, from which it presents guidelines for a political. For this we will analyze their descriptions of the deterioration of community ties and the configuration of new subjectivities, in order to reveal his critical readings and interpretations of the metaphysical tradition of subjectivity. In this way, we propose to reveal ways for a possible comprehensive development of this contemporary socio-political approach.
