DOMINIC DELNEGRO; ART AND DEMOCRACY


Ten years after the death of one of the most profound philosophers of the twentieth century, remains a powerful reverberation of his articulate analysis of society, politics, economy, humanity and its artistic dimension. Cornelius Castoriadis, greek birth (1922) and Parisian by adoption (1945), has produced an original thought on the role of the social dynamics of power in the fossilization of: overcoming the widespread belief that the institutions are derived from external inevitability means making Fire awareness of self-emancipation from them. It means feeding a critical dialectic, a process of permanent liberation in a tension between past, present and future.

In the complex intellectual production of Castoriadis, we find an honest democratic radicalism that exposes the hypocrisy and duplicity of the current institutional discourse. "When I use this word (democracy, ed), I mean (as I always do) something in Greece as in the West has existed only as a sketch, as the seed. The democratic project is the effort, still unfinished, the concrete form in institutions, to the extent practicable, individual and social autonomy. In other words, it goes hand in hand with the emergence and the emergence of the ability to challenge and change institutions by the company itself, "he said in 1988, in a debate with Octavio Paz and Carlos Jorge Semprun Barral role on "political" writer. Art and culture in their relationship with the democratic society is a reflection of the areas in which Castoriadis early diagnosis on the current crisis of meaning, if not the real paralysis of creativity.

A taste of radiography of art and society we have now in the collection of writings from the period 1978-1992, "Window on chaos" (127 pages, 12 euros), in a bookstore a few days, for the types of Eleuthera, home Milanese publishing catalog has another remarkable text of Castoriadis, "The democratic revolution. Theory and design of self "(edited by Fabio Ciaramelli, see article below).
In the afterword of the new anthology, the editors suggest the denunciation of a cultural epoch characterized by repetitive mode, whether to repeat a gesture of breaking with tradition (the false avant-garde) or inconsistent plundering of the riches of the past. "The advance of eclecticism, collage, and especially invertebrate syncretism of object loss and loss of meaning, which went hand in hand with the abandonment of the search of the form": in this synthesis is the perceived failure of the that, says the philosopher, stifles both the past and the future. The past, because "where there is no present there is not even past." The future, since "vanished with the living memory of the past and a future project valued."

Castoriadis calls for a past relationship with the museum but a dynamic type, "Shooting and interpretation", also illuminates the "collective dimension" of art. The "truth" of the artwork, he says, is not in the artist: creator does not exist without an audience creator itself. The real "reception" of a new work "is creative as his creation."
Ultimately, the works of culture transcend the individual and relate to the sphere of "private / public '(open to all but free of political intervention) and" public / public' (one of which apply to all decisions). In this context, the creations "are also the weight of collective identity," says Castoriadis, blaming liberalism and individualism have not forgotten this insignificant detail.

Castoriadis: The democratic revolution. Theory and design of self-
Politics as a path to allow humans to be the protagonists of their own change. It is the central theme of the book "The democratic revolution. Theory and design of self-government, "a collection of writings of Cornelius Castoriadis, edited by Fabio Ciaramelli (Eleuthera, 2001), professor of philosophy at the University of Naples.
"The thought of Cornelius Castoriadis - the editor writes in the introduction - has always had intense political and pedagogical implications. His has always been an urgent appeal not to fall into resignation and apathy, not to debase insignificance in the face triumphant, not as victims of impotence. Invitation to respond by developing a strong philosophical and political project, capable of forcing the limits of the existing, without leaning to any guarantees already given. Untimely appeal to freedom and historical creation, invitation to responsibility undefended full knowledge that finds its autonomy understood as key to effective democracy-rule. "

Central location in the proposed theory is imaginary institution of society, in every given society, in the ashes of its stability (the "company set up"), hatching the embers of the alteration and change (the "company chartering"). Human societies are autoistituiscono and then because, unlike nature, are not governed by universal laws, it may not have originally and intrinsically political. Ciaramelli observes: "The determination of the global buoyancy any society is always and only the work of the same company: a collective work of which every society is both subject and object.
But it is precisely this political dimension of social dell'autoistituzione is hidden and actively denied in most societies known. The only form of society that takes the explicit seeks to cultivate, is democracy. Castoriadis (...) - Ciaramelli still remember - it was a harsh critic of the drift of contemporary democracies, which he defined schemes liberal oligarchy, in which the participation of the management of collective affairs, far from being encouraged, is expressly hindered. "

Reopen the reflection on the imagery of political democracy as the only form of society in which politics is explicitly established as a collective activity and conflict: this is the reflection of the strong call of Castoriadis. "The current crisis of the democratic movement - observed Ciaramelli -, crisis or crisis of the political project of self-government, is due to the eclipse of the social imaginary meaning of autonomy, which seems in difficulty than the other meaning of the imaginary competitor compared to the first modern, rational domain consists of the absolute domination by the economic, quantified as the exclusive value. " But it must be understood as the "democratic revolution" spoken of Castoriadis? For the French intellectual, as recalled Ciaramelli, democracy has nothing of the inevitable, or the "providential": therefore, a vision far removed from the post-revolutionary Tocqueville. On the contrary, the democratic revolution, "is inscribed in contrast to the more widespread and more spontaneous result of social existence, concealing the institution consistent, satisfying heteronomy. The bureaucratic society in the twentieth century it was the furthest reaches. That's why the project of democracy is highly political: it is to be paid for by the whole society, whose stakes are democratic and collective. In fact, democracy implies the collective participation of self-government in power and the power which it was established in the first place.

The real task of democratic politics, its true revolutionary character, then, consist in making human beings the active subjects of their own change. But to this end it is essential to inspire in them - through the paideia - the desire and interest in public decisions. The indomitable passion for autonomy and its realization, which is an array element in Castoriadis Enlightenment, combining them with fierce rejection of all forms of institutional orthodoxy and obedience, have made an original thinker and lonely, jealous of his independence of opinion. " A thinker who has never abandoned the revolutionary project understood as fidelity to the realization of democracy. In his multi-faceted intellectual commitment, Castoriadis, economist, sociologist, psychoanalyst, has also played a smart and ruthless critic of socialism and capitalism. Two models of which showed, among other things, a common sign of conservatism: the centrality of the economy as a means of human existence becomes the end. The challenge, however, is out of the paradigm: "It is necessary to imagine other than he is willing to, and you want other than what it is to liberate the imagination," observes the French intellectual.

Fabio Ciaramelli also offers a critical reading of Castoriadis's thought and its possible limitations in the context of the historical paradigm of which is produced together and criticism. The same Ciaramelli is the author of an essay ("The destruction of desire. Narcissism in the era of mass consumption," published by Daedalus) which defines "the prompt achievement of happiness" as an imperative of our time resulting in the mortification of desire for a deferred gratification. So - bitter observation - even the desire for a "democratic revolution". Reflections, the above mentioned ones, which are relevant in the context of the growing debate on the issues of globalization and neoliberalism.
