Be-in-the-world working: finitude, existence and current capitalism

Abstract

What does it mean be-in-the world within an hiper-consumerist capitalist society? Relation between work and capital configure human condition from a manner to be linked to environment, to the social, the others and to one self. And this manner is conditioned to the kind of work carry out by individuals, and to the position it makes her take in social world. In this sense, the subjectivities in neoliberal regime seems to be restricted to be in the world only to work. That is why the relation between work and existence require a reconsideration from an ontology related with the material, historical, cultural and social conditions, looking for other ways for produce and reproduce human life.
