Między fundamentalizmem a relatywizmem. O praktycznych i teoretycznych konsekwencjach detotalizacji współczesnej polityki
Between Fundamentalism and Relativism. On the Practical and Theoretical Consequences of the Detotalization of Contemporary Politics

Summary/Abstract: The author assumes that nowadays one can talk about the crisis of a realistic paradigm in the contemporary political theory that seems to be related to the postmodernist detotalization of modern politics. The aim of the article is to point out and discuss some of the theoretical and practical consequences of this fact, which the author mainly connects with the redefinition of the concept of the political. Referring to the theory of modernity of Ágnes Heller and Ferenc Fehér, he discusses both the negative consequences of this phenomenon, which is associated with the escalation of fundamentalist and relativistic attitudes, and the concept of political hermeneutics, understood as a kind of antidote to previously signaled problems.
