The prodigal son

This book deals with prodigality as a characteristic of the current being-in-the-world. The planetary homogeneity promoted by Globalism advances with the promise of freedom and prosperity based on the uprooting and liquidation of historical identities. Prodigality as a current existential mode consists in the abandonment of heritages, genealogies, traditions to join this uncertain global subject with a clearly Anglo profile. We propose this study as a work of curatorship against waste. Curation, as a juridical institution, is the effort of persons and creatures to persevere in their being.
