The essay looks at the philosophical aspects of some particularly relevant phenomena of present day: globalization, American Çendless warÈ strategy, fundamentalist terrorism. The thesis put forward is that such phenomena share a theoretical and latu sensu cultural root (nichilism, fundamentalism, messianism, the refusal of dialectics an so on). Only by showing and criticizing such root it will be possible a positive way out from present dramas. The essay, in which some of the most relevant present thinkers, such as Baudrillard, Glucksmann, Severino, Levinas and Gadamer, are considered, points out the coming task of thought and action which should be a refounding of politics, the only alternative to the remnants of the totalitarian era: terrorism and pre-emptive war.
