The editors propose “new materialisms” as a way to take matter seriously without falling into the conceptual dualism that posits an opposition between matter and thought, materialism and idealism, and body and mind.

El ensayo argumenta que los movimientos de la memoria y la anticipacion que Hobbes describe como centrales en la pasion del miedo transforman el campo causal del sujeto de tal manera que le da un sentido de posible dominio tanto sobre si como sobre el mundo que la rodea. Al sugerir que el miedo fomenta la ilusion de autonomia en la agencia de los individuos, Hobbes senala la posibilidad de que el inmenso y temible poder atribuido al soberano no sea simplemente una respuesta a la necesidad de sofocar el desenfreno y el desorden, sino tambien una condicion para el sentido de cada individuo de su propia soberania.","PeriodicalId":137368,"journal":{"name":"New Materialisms","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114206385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
