BOURDIN, Jean-Claude. SOCIAL INVISIBILITY AS VIOLENCE. Univ. philos. [online]. 2010, vol.27, n.54, pp.15-33. ISSN 0120-5323.

A social and political philosophy that ignores invisibility and visibility are not the matters of perception but of violent conditions, methods and social processes of confirming or infirming human existing that disprove the claims of a pure and abstract philosophy, is nothing more than ideology. A critical reflection of the 'normal' state of things implies an option for mutilated and unclassified existence of excluded, subordinates, poor, unemployed, beggar, caretakers, domestic workers, housewives, who are present but do not exist, and are violated by discriminatory agendas of what is visible and invisible in modern society. Phenomenology and logic of the social question would analyze the living conditions of the public sphere, unravel this kind of violence, and discern the meaning and value of the struggle of invisible people to become visible ones.

Palavras-chave : social invisibility; subordinates; public space; social philosophy.
