We are lost in an oppressively circular desert where something hardly happens and where the suspicion of even a new world has been banished. Being and power are linked until almost drowning the desire to live. That is why we must think radically of the "between" that links them in the expression "between being and power." So that your difference is restored and with it the will to live. To this end it will be necessary to cross a certain interpretation of the History of Philosophy with an analysis of our current affairs. The result is a reflection in which the problem of the beginning of thinking and resisting power, the history of metaphysics and how to enclose power in a tautology appear together ... As this reflection progresses a subjectivity is configured. We have not opposed its progress, because, in short, this was the real purpose we did not dare to pronounce. Define and argue a subjectivity that, having broken with the democratic consensus, is able to undertake a long journey through the possible-impossible without taking refuge neither in the absurd nor in the tragic. Santiago López Petit, was one of many participants in the cycle of autonomous struggles that developed in the 1970s in the great industrial agglomerations of Europe. In the desert that opened after this defeat, López Petit has tried to develop a new philosophy. A philosophy that, when all the old categories of the workers' struggle seem to have died, reconsiders politics from a radical perspective. Fruit of this will has been the animation of several groups and militant experiences, in addition to a long series of books and booklets, among which it was necessary to mention: Horror vacui. The crossing of the night of the century (1996), The infinite and the nothing (2003), Love and think. The hate of wanting to live (2005) and Global mobilization. Brief treatise to attack reality, recently published by Dream Traffickers.
