Il numero di "Philosophy Today" sugli 80 anni di Gianni Vattimo
Special topic in honor of Gianni Vattimo's 80th birthday
Stefano G. Azzarà, Gianni Vattimo:
From Weak Thought to Hermeneutics as a “Second Realism” and a Philosophy of Praxis
Since the 1980s, Vattimo’s “Weak Thought” has been an
emendation of his previous revolutionary and dialectical reading of
Nietzsche. Marxist terrorism in Europe exposed the indissoluble link
between dialectics and violence, and consequently Vattimo’s revision was
a rejection of any reconstructive effort for a new political and social
order. But in the age of Silvio Berlusconi, Vattimo rediscovered the
joy of political commitment. Ecce Comu was a call to pursue “a project
of human emancipation” founded “on the search for equality.” More
recently, Of Reality and Hermeneutic Communism are a rejection of
neoliberal philosophies and constitute a jump back to the Seventies.
Vattimo aims once again to change the world and reality, a reality that
other philosophies (Ferraris’ New Realism) simply contemplate as a pure
fact. Vattimo defends the “revolutionary” meaning of hermeneutics
against realism’s conservative tendencies and develops a project close
to Gramsci’s “philosophy of praxis.”
