Potere/poteri. Introduzione

Abstract

Power, in its complexity, is a crucial question in political philosophy and, more generally, in all disciplines exploring politics. The Introduction presents the monographic section Power/powers, which intends to provide a contribution to the analysis of this complexity, and aims at intertwining closeness to reality and philosophical-political conceptualization. In introducing the following essays, four aspects involved in power are highlighted: the paradigms of rationality, the subject, the symbolic codes and the ways of exercise.
