20.500.12556/RUL-178327 In Search of Allies Global Philosophy as Criticism V iskanju zaveznikov globalna filozofija kot kritika The world is more dominated than ever by a destructive logic of self-assertion (Selbstbehauptung) at the expense of global solidarity. Can Chinese philosophy offer an al­ternative? If philosophy is needed today, then it is a philosophy which is able to break through that logic, instead of itself falling victim to or even supporting it. However, the latter is the case if a philosophy understands itself as an expression of a specific cultural identity as distinct from others, as for example in today’s China. Even what is currently being discussed under the term “global philosophy” is influenced by that logic, insofar as it presents itself as a panopticon of juxtaposed worldviews that rest in themselves and not as something that points beyond them. However, only by critiquing “its own” (das Eigene), and not by affirming it, can philosophy be truly global and develop alternatives to self-assertion. This corresponds to its origins, be it in Greece or China, as globality is originally inherent in philosophy, inasmuch as it emerges as a criticism of the given culture due to a crisis of its tradition that made human existence problematic. It is just that it has repeatedly fallen behind. Recalling philosophy’s origin might help to revive its culture-critical, culture-transcending core and enable it to join forces with its likes against the powers that are plunging the world into disaster. Svet je vedno bolj pod vplivom destruktivne logike samopotrjevanja (Selbstbehauptung) na račun globalne solidarnosti. Ali lahko kitajska filozofija ponudi alternativo? Če je filozofija danes potrebna, potem je to filozofija, ki je sposobna prekiniti in preseči logiko samopotrjevanja, ne pa da sama postane njena žrtev ali jo celo podpira. Zadnje velja, ko se filozofija vidi kot izraz specifične kulturne identitete, ki se razlikuje od drugih, kot na primer v današnji Kitajski. Tudi to, kar se trenutno razpravlja pod pojmom »globalna filozofija«, je pod vplivom te logike, če se predstavlja kot panoptikon različnih svetovnih nazorov, ki ostajajo sami v sebi, in ne kot nekaj, kar kaže onkraj njih. Toda filozofija lahko postane resnično globalna in razvije alternative v odnosu do samopotrditve le s kritiko »svojega« (das Eigene), in ne z njegovim potrjevanjem. To je v skladu z njenim izvorom, bodisi v Grčiji bodisi na Kitajskem, saj je globalnost v osnovi neločljivo pov-ezana s filozofijo, če le-ta izhaja iz kritike dane kulture zaradi krize njene tradicije, ki je problematizirala človeško bivanje. Gre samo za to, da je vedno znova zaostajala. Pomn-jenje samega izvora filozofije bi lahko pomagalo ponovno oživiti njeno kulturno-kritično in kulturo presegajoče bistvo ter ji omogočilo, da se združi s podobnimi silami proti močem, ki svet potiskajo v katastrofo.
