Povzetek: The problem with the disappearance of absolute sovereignty from Bodin to Schmitt, as Derrida views it within his late (ethical-political) deconstruction, is that there no longer exists a sufficient reason for any effectiveness of representing the Other. Reasons are reducible to this or that form of violence. Everything must be dismantled and disassembled. What remains of sovereignty becomes contingency and singularity of the space between power and freedom. In this space, Derrida begins with the view of the Other and unconditional hospitality as a deconstruction of previous metaphysical politics of hospitality. The Other must be emancipated from the perspective of the subject’s metaphysics and its inherent violence. In the discourse of politics of friendship lies the ground for democracy to come as a final soteriological solution for other headings of history.

Povzetek: Mit o Narcisu velja za zgodbo o kazni, ki jo naslovni junak prejme, ker se zaljubi sam vase. Z upoštevanjem interpretacij mita o Narcisu pri Ovidu, Freudu, Lacanu, Dalíju, Blanchotu, Girardu, Kofmanovi in Nancyju, avtor skuša pokazati, da je takšna interpretacija, četudi nam nekaj pove o izvoru mita samem, napačna. Mit o Narcisu ne govori o obsedenosti s sabo, saj Narcis, za razliko današnjih narcisistov, ne prepozna samega sebe v ogledalu in ne ve, da gleda samega sebe. Vidi obraz, ki se mu zdi prelep, tako lep, da si ga strastno želi in se bo v njem končno tudi izgubil. Vidi tujca.

Povzetek: “Tendency towards more life.” Arnold Gehlen as a Philosopher According to Arnold Gehlen, man is defined by a unique biological helplessness and can thus be considered as a perilous being with a “constitutive chance to fail.” Through the latter, the human being is forced to assume a relation to itself; however, not on the basis of a stable naturality, but as the open nature as such. Within the nonfixed and hence unlikely biology of man, reaching as far as the vegetative itself, lies a specific dignity—from it, the question arises how such a monstruous, formless, and fragile being is capable of survival. Gehlen’s philosophy is distinguished by the circumstance that it incorporates the physical conditionality of man and thus demonstrates the necessity for biology to emerge from a sort of positive negativity. Yet, the focus of the present contribution is not primarily the hierarchy of accomplishments, with which man seeks to turn deficiency into the positivity of a quasi-animalistic certitude, but Gehlen’s philosophical insight into the self-surpassing, the surplus of life that has, in nature, developed an extensive formal richness and that has, in man, begun to relate to itself. Such insights place Gehlen into the tradition of Plato’s and, above all, Nietzsche’s philosophical anthropology.

Povzetek: Community as a Form of Thinking. How One Turns Kant Towards Social Philosophy with Fink, Nancy, and Esposito In the times of nihilism, it is necessary to recall, with Roberto Esposito, the fact that, strictly speaking, in philosophy and its history, there is no other subject than community, insofar as everything that becomes the subject of philosophy can only become so because of the fact that there is community. That communality is a form of thinking or that the latter is constitutively communal, is another way of expressing what Emmanuel Levinas once put in the more succinct phrase that in consciousness one is always in two, even if one is alone. In order to explain the implications of this, I draw a line in my essay from Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason (specifically, its “positive” definition of being as “merely the position of a thing” [B 626], which receives much less attention than its negative aspect emphasized in the same passage, according to which being is not a real predicate) to the readings of Kant by Eugen Fink, Jean-Luc Nancy, and the aforementioned Roberto Esposito, in order to arrive at an understanding of being as an exposition of the disposition of things in us, i.e., as community.

Povzetek: The Modern Barbarianism In his work, Eugen Fink often confronted the profound problematicity of the contemporary epoch and attempted to illuminate its enigmatic traits in a productive, future-oriented manner. Despite a philosophical fascination with Nietzsche and Heidegger, he apparently did not want to share and radically appropriate for himself their views regarding “the European nihilism.” With a reading of the writings collected in the book Zur Krisenlage des modernen Menschen (On the Crisis Situation of Modern Man), the paper seeks to demonstrate that Fink’s contemplations upon the matter compellingly reveal the obscure sense and nonsense of the actual state of contemporaneity, although they predominantly devote attention solely to its phenomenality. To a certain degree, such an attempt needs to take into account also the philosopher’s speculative thoughts concerning nothingness and death.
