In 'The Coming Community', Giorgio Agamben explores concepts of ontology, community, and ethics from a philosophical perspective of language. This book, belonging to the Hestia-Dike series, examines the philosophy of the subject and the social sciences, offering a profound reflection on the human condition and life in community. Published in Valencia, Spain, by Pre-Textos, this edition presents a Spanish translation by José L. Villacañas and Claudio La Rocca from the Italian original 'La Communità che viene'.
Giorgio Agamben is an Italian philosopher whose work spans political theory, ontology, aesthetics, and literature. He is best known for developing the concept of homo sacer and exploring the relationship between sovereignty, legal authority, and what he calls 'bare life'. His writings draw on sources including Aristotle, Roman law, Christian theology, Martin Heidegger, Walter Benjamin, Ludwig Wittgenstein, St. Augustine and Carl Schmitt among others, and engage critically with Michel Foucault’s account of biopolitics and biopower. Agamben’s multi-volume Homo Sacer project has been widely discussed within political philosophy, jurisprudence, anthropology, and the humanities, and he is considered one of the most influential writers in contemporary continental philosophy.
