Description
Summary:In the present article we reconsider space as a fundamental category to assess both “the common” and the actual violence exerted against it. This approach stems historically from the modern point of view in 20th century’s language philosophy. Nevertheless, it serves as a point of departure for a general consideration over structure and space natures. Such an enterprise to vindicate the role of space in philosophy, so called, in order to reach the same dignification as time. We first address its cognitive dimension, then its linguistical structure and finally arrive to a proper “spatial reading”. We advance in the thesis that a human being requires a common space, imagined through a topology. At the final remarks, we offer some cues to think contemporary common space to shed light on different sorts of violence directed against it.
