Resumo: In this essay Rita Segato mobilizes a set of interpretations about the possible meaning of the new coronavirus pandemic, in which it is understood as: 1) a catalyst for a collapse of the neoliberal illusion; 2) a justification for the imposition of a state of exception; 3) a "final solution"; 4) an accessory of a warlike approach to the establishment of new enemies; 5) a symptom of the unsustainable way we treat the environment; and 6) a herald of the need for a feminine key politicity. All of them, however, would be based on a will of omnipotence: that of framing history in a predictable course. Faced with the incommunicability of this present event, she defends as a priority the openness to the unpredictable, and the protection of life in the here and now.

Todas elas, entretanto, estariam fundadas numa vontade de onipotência: a de enquadrar a história em um rumo previsível. Diante da incomunicabilidade deste evento do presente, ela defende como prioridade a abertura para o imprevisível, e a proteção da vida no aqui e agora.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2021-02-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/emtese/article/view/7915810.5007/1806-5023.2021.e79158Em Tese; v. 18 n. 1 (2021); 11-221806-5023reponame:Em Tese (Florianópolis)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/emtese/article/view/79158/45439http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVituri Berbert, Loren MarieSegato, Rita LauraBradbury de Oliveira, Renato2021-02-10T01:51:48Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/79158Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/emtese/PUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/emtese/oaiportaldeperiodicos.bu@contato.ufsc.br||revistaemtese@gmail.com1806-50231806-5023opendoar:2021-02-10T01:51:48Em Tese (Florianópolis) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
