20709755 FILOSOFIA MORALE - L.M. in Philosophical Sciences LM-78 N0 GENTILI DARIO
(syllabus)
The course presents and analyses the three fundamental modes of conflict: agon, polemos, stasis. That is, the conflict as "competition" (ethos at the same time moral, economic and sporting, which finds its clearest determination in ancient Greek thought); the conflict as "war" (Hobbes); the conflict as "civil war", within the community and the political body (Loraux, Agamben). The aim of the course is to define the peculiarity of these different modes of conflict.
