Knowledge, Power and Politic-Cultural Civilization
What kind of relationship has modernity established between knowledge and power? What forms does such a relationship take in contemporary society? The attempt here is to enter into the merits of its new formulations, focusing attention on the degradation to which power and knowledge
have been subjected. The essay also indicates a solution that does not consist in a return to the past or escape into the future, but in the possibility of viewing the present as an opportunity for cultural emancipation.
