Els marges del pensament polític contemporani

La crisi i esfondrament del pensament metafísic heretat de la modernitat deixa la filosofia contemporània davant d'un nou paradigma on el coneixement s’ha de construir prescindint de tota identitat i fonamentació. El meu projecte s’estableix com un recorregut descendent que parteix d’un àmbit concret, com és el del problema de la manca de fonamentació en la filosofia política contemporània, per arribar a la veritable arrel del problema general que no és altre que la mateixa naturalesa del llenguatge filosòfic. El punt de partida és la pregunta sobre la possibilitat d’una filosofia política en termes postmetafísics. La filosofia política, atrapada entre les forces de la tirania unitària del concepte metafísic i la dissolució pràctica en pro de la realitat instrumental, traça ponts cap a l’estètica i la deconstrucció, que tenen com a corol•lari final qüestionar-nos els propis límits del pensament polític. El concepte d’impolític és una sortida deconstructiva a aquest atzucac. Des d’Esposito, Rancière, Nancy, però sobretot Massimo Cacciari, he aprofundit en el paradigma postmetafísic que origina aquesta negació política de la pròpia política, política com els seus límits, relació com a distància i identitat com a silenci. És evident que la clau de volta és l’herència i recepció contemporània de Nietzsche i la seva crítica a la transcendentalitat moderna en el sí de l’elaboració d’un coneixement en un naufragi constant pel fracàs de la síntesi que anhela. És aquesta herència la que ha possibilitat aquest pensament negatiu contemporani, el del joc wittgensteinià, la deconstrucció del valor que queda convertit en el seu propi marge (Derrida). Definim així no només una comunitat política basada en la incommensurabilitat dels seus membres alhora buits de contingut (Musil), sinó un model de llenguatge que és el seu propi silenci, un llenguatge en contínua lluita contra sí mateix. El meu projecte és una relectura d’aquesta veritat no identitària on el concepte de diàleg pren una importància cabdal. La filosofia de la música aquí es presenta com un terreny fèrtil d’eines conceptuals a l’hora de desenvolupar-ho. La música és el llenguatge negatiu que només troba possibilitat en la seva pròpia impossibilitat de contingut sintètic. Més enllà de les referències obligatòries a chönberg i Adorno entre altres, el camí iniciat per Bergson amb la introducció de la temporalitat a la discussió obra la porta al paper de l’esdveniment en aquest discurs sobre la impossibilitat. Tornant a la filosofia, on el propi llenguatge filosòfic es defineix ja com a impossible, l’esdeveniment reobre l’antiga tensió entre l’escriptura i la paraula viva, veritable fonament del problema, i vèrtex de la possibilitat d’aquesta filosofia impossible.

Qualité de l'attachement dans la psychose et figures spirituelles

This study had mainly two goals: First of all, adult attachement was investigated in 28 patients with chronic psychosis and 18 controls, using the"Adult Attachment Interiew". This, as no previous research had ever done so with a scientific validated instrument. Diagnostic evaluations were performed with the SCID and symptomtic evaluation with the BPRS. Results showed that patients were more likely to have experienced traumatic experiences with their primary caregivers during their childhood then have controls. We were able to identify as well a high prevalence of insecure avoidant attachement in patients, which highlights the functional dimension of psychosis in the maintenance of the relation to primary attachement figures. This study shows that insecure avoidant attachement is related to an early outset as well as to an unfavourable prognosis. Second, quite a few researches on spirituality in psychosis have shown that patients were more likely to have spiritual believes or practices then indiviuals of a nonclinical population. Coping strategies related to spirituality and religion were identified as efficient for the majority. They can help dealing with all types of difficulties, specific symptoms and may enhance life quality (Mohr et al., 2006). Therefore we have investigated some of the underlying psychological processes in this type of coping strategies, using the conceptual framework of Bowlby's attachement theory. For most participants, both patients and controls, « spiritual figures » are functionning as attachement figures. Most of them are transposing the internal working model, achieved in relation to their primary caregivers, towards their "spiritual figure" even in case of an insecure attachement. - Cette recherche poursuit essentiellement deux objectifs. Premièrement, elle examine les modèles d'attachement à l'aide du « Adult Attachment Interview » chez 28 personnes souffrant de psychose chronique et chez 18 personnes ne souffrant d'aucune affection psychiatrique. En effet, aucune étude avant celle-ci n'avait investigué l'attachement chez des patients psychotiques chroniques à l'aide d'instruments scientifiquement validés. Les évaluations diagnostiques ont été réalisées à l'aide du SCID et les évaluations symptomatologiques à l'aide du BPRS. Dans ce contexte, nous avons pu montrer qu'une majorité de patients avaient été victimes d'expériences relationnelles traumatisantes en lien avec leurs premières figures d'attachement durant l'enfance. Nos résultats indiquent également l'importante prévalence d'un attachement insécure-détaché, qui reflète la dimension fonctionnelle des symptômes psychotiques visant la préservation du lien aux principales figures d'attachement. Ceux-ci montrent encore qu'un attachement insécure-détaché est associé à un début précoce de la maladie ainsi qu'à un pronostic défavorable. Deuxièmement, de nombreuses études ont montré que les patients psychotiques avaient davantage recours à des croyances et pratiques spirituelles/religieuses pour tenter de faire face à leurs difficultés que la population générale. Ce recours s'avère être efficace pour un grand nombre d'entre eux. Il leur permet souvent une meilleure gestion des difficultés, des symptômes et globalement améliore leur qualité de vie (Mohr et al., 2006). Nous avons donc examiné certaines des dimensions psychiques sousjacentes à ce type de stratégie de coping à l'aide de l'arrière-plan conceptuel de la théorie de l'attachement de Bowlby. Nous avons effectivement constaté qu'un grand nombre de participants, patients et contrôles, investissent des figures spirituelles sur le mode de l'attachement. Même en cas d'un attachement insécure, la majorité d'entre eux transposent leurs modèles internes opérants, acquis dans leur relation aux premières figures d'attachement, sur leur croyance en des figures spirituelles.
