La emocionalidad en lo público: los dilemas de la indignación como origen de una nueva ética-política

Abstract

The following dissertation constitutes a reflection about the contemporary experience of indignation and its potential as an alternative comprehension regarding the political experience. In this respect, the text explores how social manifestation of indignation overlaps to a newly discursive reality. For that purpose, two theoretical approaches (emancipation theory and critical liberalism) will articulate an exegetical reflection of indignation as an experience that impacts the schemes of meaning of man in the contemporary world. This perspective enables us to better understand how the experience of indignation in the contemporary scenario introduces a new way of comprehending the human condition and the action that thus introduces a new ethical and political vision.
