Abstract

Resumen: Este artículo se propone realizar una lectura y un análisis del sentido de la noción de guerra en el contexto de un esquema teórico que permita dar una imagen política al pensamiento de Henri Bergson. Se sostendrá que esta suerte de noción de límite del término guerra habría de ser comprendida bajo una compleja articulación dada, en nuestra hipótesis, por los términos conceptuales de facticidad, constatación y acontecimiento. En suma, nuestro argumento intentará sostener que, por un lado, hay un pensamiento político en Bergson y, en consecuencia, es necesario para este filósofo dar cuenta de la realidad inevitable de la guerra misma en cuanto dato tanto histórico como político.: This article intends to make a reading and analysis of the meaning of the notion of war in the context of a theoretical schema that permits the giving of a political image to the thought of Henri Bergson. It will be argued that this sort of notion of the limit of the term war has to be understood, in our hypothesis, through the conceptual terms of facticity, confirmation, and event. In sum, our argument will try to maintain that there is a political thought in Bergson, and that consequently it is inevitable for this philosopher take account of the reality of war as both historical and political data.
