A Reductive interpretation on anarchism in the Architectonic of Dussel’s politics of liberation

Abstract

Anarchism warned many years ahead of the crisis of real socialism in 1989 about the misunderstandings of  marxism, so it’s worth asking What is the reason for Dussel  to ignore such enormous historical evidence? By  the way,  not only perceptive marxists like Gramsci, Rosa  Luxemburg  or the postmodern Laclau pointed out the  inconsistencies of standard marxism and real socialism,  others, such as Malatesta and Kropotkin, also proposed  categories to build a new order, the latter, suggests some  theoretical considerations that seem to have inspired  Dussel in the criticisms he raises to politics as an exercise  of domination, to metaphysical economism and  individualism of the same line, and regarding his defense  of a political claim to justice in accordance with  fundamental principles, of co- determination of material  (economic) and formal (political) spheres to overcome  economism and politicism and, above all, of a new  ontologicalpolitical order whose fundamental body must  be Life.
