La natalidad como categoría filosófica en la obra de Hannah Arendt

Abstract

Hannah Arendt´s concept of «natality» puts into question the ontological ground of inherited philosophical tradition. However, this study aims at situating theoretical and epistemological thought in the field of politics. From this angle, such concept invites us to reflect on the constituted public sphere as a «different plurality», in which there is space for the register of sensitivity, which has been relatively ignored by such tradition. More specifically, the French feminist reception of this concept leads to a model of relation which establishes the foundations of a social space, constructed from the ability of each man and woman to
reinvent this space, by integrating within it their difference. The interest in Arendt moves, accordingly, towards that in her life and subjectivity.
