All the reasons for making a revolution are there, but the bodies are in front of screens
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this paper, I propose a philosophical approach on the current situation of pandemic and confinement, using as a trigger some of the texts published by the philosopher Paul B. Preciado during the period. Despite disagreeing with some of his formulations, I argue that he adopts a performative discourse as a political strategy, and I develop his provocations about two central issues: the possibility of circumventing the state of surveillance and the ability to collectively imagine a revolutionary alternative.
