Ontologías del ser social (Lukács, Gould, Negri, Hardt, Balibar)

Abstract

Without program or project, with no major indications or clear definitions in that direction, there is an ontology in Marx. This hypothesis is not original or what so ever. With that been said, it is significant that along the rich interpretative history that since a century and a half has been displayed around Marx, the ontological question occupies such a reduced and, undoubtedly, marginal place. For that, there are reasons that are more or less evident, and others that are not much so.

The present work aims to realize an attentive reading from those texts that would have carried farther the analysis of the marxian ontology of the “social being”. It fundamentally addresses the texts of known authors from the occidental marxism: Georg Lukács, Carol Gould, Antonio Negri, Michael Hardt y Étienne Balibar. Though, as the reading advances, it will have to give place to new texts and authors that, perhaps less directly than the previous ones, would also have contributed to the analysis of the ontological question in Marx.
