Zusammenfassung: | Our decisive moment -- The project of autonomy -- Eurocentric visions of modern Greece -- Cornelius Castoriadis : a brief biography -- The social-historical dimension of time -- Crisis and insignificance -- The invisible subject -- Power, authority, and freedom -- The ontological revolution of the internet -- The collapse of the old and the emergence of new significations -- New forms of social networking and local autonomy "To what degree can the philosophy of Cornelius Castoriadis help analyse and evaluate our current social reality in relation to the project of autonomy? How meaningful is his political proposition for direct democracy in the 21st century? This book presents basic concepts of Castoriadian philosophy, such as the social-historical plane, ontological creativity, and social and individual time, that provide the theoretical tools necessary to evaluate the historical phenomena of our era. By revealing the new significances of social freedom, global solidarity and movements of direct democracy, this book explores roads towards social autonomy and human freedom today"-- |
