摘要

The main task of the text is to find a new positive formula for“poverty”,which instead of addressing it in negative terms—as a threat,degradation,or humiliation—would reveal the potentiality and productivity of poverty.In my text I would like to rethink the status of poverty in four important texts that contribute to the history of 20th century philosophy.My main goal is to understand the philosophical revindication of the categories of“poverty”and“poverty”.Who is poor?Who are the poor and do they form a specific class,assemblage,community or collective?What is poverty?Does poverty of the poor regard possession,existence,life,experience,concept,agency,freedom,action?Do these different types of poverty,regarding various fields,have a common denominator?Is seeking poverty worthwhile?Is loyalty to poverty the only imperative of an ethical subject?Is philosophical praise of poverty possible?How,in what language,how can it be praised?In answering these questions,I will turn towards the texts of Benjamin,Heidegger,Agamben,Negri and Hardt.
