A Philosophy for Future Generations: The Structure and Dynamics of Transgenerationality

The relationship between generations is essential for the endurance of societies, and Tiziana Andina's study explores the factors that enable a society to reproduce over time. Andina's model draws on classical political philosophies and the philosophies of power to confront the ethics and function of this relationship and recognizes the importance of transgenerationality in the formation and endurance of Western democracies.

If societies, like institutions, are designed to endure, then the bond that exists between generations must be considered. Tiziana Andina delves into the factors that enable a society to reproduce over time, exploring the construction of a framework to establish a philosophy of future generations. In her study of the diachronic structure of societies, Andina examines the continuous passage of generations, as each new generation contributes to the formation of the new social fabric and political model. Drawing upon the anthropologies offered by classical political philosophies such as Hobbes and Machiavelli, as well as the philosophies of power discussed by Nietzsche, Andina's model offers a comprehensive exploration of this fundamental relationship. She confronts the ethics and functions of this relationship, examines the role of transgenerationality in the formation and endurance of Western democracies, and recognizes an often overlooked problem: each new generation must be integrated into social and political arrangements designed for them by the generations that came before.
