Filosofía contemporáneaAbstract
The notions of refusal and revolution exist throughout different time periods in Blanchot’s political thinking. This article will first briefly characterize these notionsduring the 1930s to go on to analyze how they are developed from the 1950s onward. We will highlight the originality of the search for a kind of power capable of questioning all power without having to be constituted and to operate as a foundation. Thus, a liminal space as opposed to politics will be suggested. In the last part, we will address Nancy’s critique of a type of politics that would be presented both as politics
of the impossible and as impossible politics.
