Resumo: | The work of Giorgio Agamben is punctuated by constantreferences to Michel Foucault’s work, so that the latter appears as an important theoretical framework for the former. However, an effort to bring the two authors together proves to be quite problematic as it is perceived that the Italian philosopher operates certain methodological and conceptual categories fundamental to Foucauldian thought in a radically different way from the French philosopher. Such incompatibility is presented with greater clarity when we propose to explore the theme of the destituent in Agamben’s work, from which ontology, politics and ethics intersect, revealing the differences between the two philosophers. Thus, in order to expose the limits of this approximation, it will first be explored the methodological distinctions between the two authorsin their approach of the problem of ‘power’, as well as the way in which the concept is formulated in the work of each of them. Next, the general lines of the agambenian ‘modal ontology’ and the ‘ethics of inoperability’ will be presentedin order to conclusively explain the divergence between the ethical solutions proposed by Foucault and Agamben in their later works. |

Entretanto, um esforço de aproximação dos dois autores se mostra deveras problemático à medida que se percebe que o filósofo italiano opera certas categorias metodológicas e conceituais fundamentais ao pensamento foucaultiano de maneira radicalmente distinta do filósofo francês. Tal incompatibilidade se apresenta com maior clareza quandonos propomos a explorar o tema do ‘destituinte’ na obra agambeniana, a partir do qual ontologia, política e ética se entrecruzam desvelando as diferenças entre os dois filósofos. Assim, para expor os limites dessa aproximação, primeiramente serão exploradas as distinções metodológicas entre os dois autores na abordagem do problema do ‘poder’, bem como a maneira como o conceito se formula na obra de cada um deles. Na sequência, serão apresentadas as linhas gerais da ‘ontologia modal’ e da ‘ética da inoperosidade’ agambenianas com o fim de explicitar ao final, à guisa de conclusão, a divergência entre as saídas éticas propostas por Foucault e Agamben em seus trabalhos tardios.Revista KriterionRevista KriterionKriterion: Revista de FilosofiaKriterion: Revista de FilosofiaRevista Kriterion2023-10-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/kriterion/article/view/38231Revista Kriterion; Vol. 64 No. 155 (2023)Revista Kriterion; Vol. 64 Núm. 155 (2023)Kriterion: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 64 No 155 (2023)Kriterion: Revista de Filosofia; V. 64 N. 155 (2023)Revista Kriterion; v. 64 n. 155 (2023)1981-53360100-512Xreponame:Kriterion (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/kriterion/article/view/38231/38771Copyright (c) 2023 Revista Kriterionhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFreitas, Lorena Martoni de2023-10-02T23:32:23Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/38231Revistahttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/kriterionPUBhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/kriterion/oairevistakriterion@gmail.com1981-53360100-512Xopendoar:2024-01-24T12:41:31.183131Kriterion (Online) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false |

The work of Giorgio Agamben is punctuated by constantreferences to Michel Foucault’s work, so that the latter appears as an important theoretical framework for the former. However, an effort to bring the two authors together proves to be quite problematic as it is perceived that the Italian philosopher operates certain methodological and conceptual categories fundamental to Foucauldian thought in a radically different way from the French philosopher. Such incompatibility is presented with greater clarity when we propose to explore the theme of the destituent in Agamben’s work, from which ontology, politics and ethics intersect, revealing the differences between the two philosophers. Thus, in order to expose the limits of this approximation, it will first be explored the methodological distinctions between the two authorsin their approach of the problem of ‘power’, as well as the way in which the concept is formulated in the work of each of them. Next, the general lines of the agambenian ‘modal ontology’ and the ‘ethics of inoperability’ will be presentedin order to conclusively explain the divergence between the ethical solutions proposed by Foucault and Agamben in their later works. |
