Miguel de Beistegui

Miguel de Beistegui, an ICREA Research Professor of Philosophy at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra, dives deep into the meaning of 'crisis' in modern times. He examines how the term relates to today’s political landscape, particularly during elections. The discussion highlights the concept of 'polycrisis,' critiques figures like Trump using Guattari’s insights, and explores the implications of ecological and political crises. Beistegui also argues that crises can foster transformative change, urging collective democratic action to confront these challenges.
