Thought of the ephimeral: an approach to contemporary philosophy

Abstract

This essay aims at drafting the conditions of possibility of the current philosophical task, bearing in mind that— at the very beginning of the XXI century— thought already glimpses the problems derived from technological reasoning in its various manifestations. The experience of lived time as expenditure on speed has generated significant transformations for the creation of subjectivities. This is how societies are urged to redefining the what and the how of
their vital activities. What light does philosophy offer in view of the current complex panorama?
