Abstract

Este trabajo aborda la cultura liberal y las contradicciones que hoy la asedian. Por una parte, resulta evidente que la cultura liberal constituye un laberinto semántico. ¿Hay algo en ese laberinto que explique el debatido lugar que hoy tiene el liberalismo a lo ancho del mundo? Ésa es la primera pregunta que guía este ensayo. La segunda tiene que ver con que, no obstante su presencia relativamente hegemónica en Occidente, durante las últimas décadas el liberalismo y el mundo que lo acompaña —Estado, democracia, capitalismo y modernidad— generan malestares y protestas de todo orden, inconformidades que arriesgan un futuro poco promisorio. La segunda pregunta es, entonces: ¿de dónde provienen esos embates? ¿Cuál es su naturaleza? ¿En qué consiste su racionalidad?
