El Quiebre Epocal Y La Conciencia de Nación

"This new book by Asdrúbal Aguiar - El quiebre epocal y la conciencia de nación - represents an effort to comprehensively understand the cultural and historical context characteristic of the West today, afflicted by a process of deconstruction of its Judeo-Christian bases. It is the work, not of retrograde ideological sectors that try to renew an exhausted Marxist discourse and that encourages the authoritarianisms of the 21st century, but rather it is the effect of an epochal breakdown, a stranger to ideologies, propelled by the digital and intelligence revolutions artificial since 1989. The great cultural debate of the present, as described in the prologue by José Rodríguez Iturbe, is none other than the one that is waged between those who affirm the immortality of the civilization that is dying, and see, in addition, its progressive evolution in the development of the anti-human and transhuman; and who, on the contrary, recognize that only by reconsidering the basic philosophical assumptions of the world that is ending, making a harsh critical assessment of its trace, can a restorative alternative proposal be formulated and the cultural and political task of building a world in which human dignity is revalued, recognized and protected. Perhaps this can originate from a refoundation of the concepts of nation and its local and temporary roots?
