Description
Summary:This article exposes the meaning that contemporary thinker Giorgio Agamben gives to the terms “sacred” and “testimony”, as well as the debate he promotes about the concept of “guilt”, which are articulated, within the scope of his methodology - archaeological-genealogical - with the homo sacer paradigm (also identified with the figure of the refugee). Through the “archeology of the sacred man”, Agamben evidences the political function that sacredness attributes to life, which, in the epistemological field, instigates reflection and argumentation about the concepts and conceptions that were consolidated on the western tradition and, in the sociological dimension, offers dense theoretical contribution to reflect on growing problems in the present time, especially the exclusion and extermination of human beings.
