RAMIREZ, CARLOS A. Postfoundationalism or Consummation of Metaphysics? Ernesto Laclau's Theory of Hegemony. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2013, vol.62, n.151, pp.9-41. ISSN 0120-0062.

According to Oliver Marchart, authors such as Badiou, Lefort, Rancière or Laclau are representatives of postfoundationalist political thought, which does not reject all foundations of the political order, but rather those that claim to be necessary. In opposition to this viewpoint and on the basis of an analysis of the concept of hegemony, the paper seeks to show how Laclau's thought fails to free itself of metaphysics. Rather, it develops politically that which according to Heidegger, the "spiritual  father" of postfoundationalism, is its consummated form: Nietzsche's  metaphysics of the will to power.

Palabras clave : E. Laclau; F. Nietzsche; M. Heidegger; metaphysics; postfoundationalism; will to power.
