Abstract

The article problematizes the self-positioning of Laclaus theory of hegemony in the “post-Marxist” field and in socialist traditions, from the analysis of the positions and debates with the intellectual thinkers who questioned him from Marxist and leftist traditions. Based on the analysis of their convergences, theoretical tensions and onto-epistemological ruptures with/ against Marxist and socialist traditions, it seeks to contribute to evaluate the validity of the criticism and, at the same time, promote a greater dialogism and debate with these theoretical, social and political conceptions.
