Critical Proximity
The importance of religion [REL] in AIME troubles readers as if religion & it's link with politics wasn't part of anthropology of modernity.
— AIME (@AIMEproject) 5 Janvier 2015Voegelin takes as the idea that we live beyond religion as the ultimate realisation of Gnosticism, that is a debased idea of [POL] and [REL]
— AIME (@AIMEproject) 5 Janvier 2015Since most idea of politics left & right comes from amalgam with a debased idea of religion it is crucial to elucidate a [POL·REL] crossing.
— AIME (@AIMEproject) 5 Janvier 2015Religion in AIME takes a 15th of the attention and it's interesting to see how critics have so much difficulty with the pluralism of modes.
— AIME (@AIMEproject) 5 Janvier 2015Critical thought has trained itself by criticizing REL imitating the way religion had 'debunked' [MET] but modes have not vanished for that.
— AIME (@AIMEproject) 5 Janvier 2015AIME explores another critical repertoire than critique by using the plurality of modes to play checks and balances on all the others modes.
— AIME (@AIMEproject) 5 Janvier 2015If it's true that distance is necessary to give a lever to critique then the plurality of modes does provide such an outside leverage point.
— AIME (@AIMEproject) 5 Janvier 2015It's probably better to talk of critical proximity than critical distance: it's better for an inquiry based on the articulation of pluralism
