Abstract

La prima parte del saggio si sofferma sul conflitto e sulle possibili con­ver­genze tra il concetto di individualismo e quello di socialismo: sebbene sia­no stati spesso pensati in contraddizione, in­dividualismo e socialismo pos­so­no anche essere visti come due concetti sinergici e com­ple­mentari. Ciò è pos­sibile se si assume la validità della tesi, sostenuta da autori come Guyau e Kropotkin, secondo la quale nell’autentico sviluppo dell’individuo non c’è posto per la so­praf­fazione ai danni dell’altro. La seconda parte del­l’ar­ticolo si sofferma sul rapporto fra in­dividualismo e modernità, mostrando co­me la modernità sia stata intesa sia come l’epoca della in­divi­dua­liz­za­zio­ne, sia come il tempo della omologazione massificante; e si conclude con l’i­dea che la nostra epoca sia caratterizzata piuttosto da molte forme di pseu­do-individualismo.The first part of the essay revolves around the conflict and the possible con­vergence between the concept of individualism and the one of socialism: al­though often thought of as contradictory to each other, individualism and so­cialism can be also considered as complementary concepts. This be­comes possible if we adopt the thesis, supported by authors like Guyan and Kropoktin, according to which the very development of the individual is in­compatible with treating others with disrespect. The second part of the es­say focuses on the relationship between individualism and modernity, try­ing to show how modernity has been understood both as an age of in­di­vi­dualization and as an age of standardization. The conclusion is that our age is rather characterized by many forms of pseudo-individualism
