| Spanish abstract | La contribución bakuniniana en teoría política remite a una postura autogubernativa centrada en la autonomía de los individuos y las agrupaciones pequeñas para definir sus fines colectivos y para articularse federativamente, postura justificada en lo filosófico a partir de un materialismo objetivista que concibe un instinto libertario natural en el ser humano. De manera sorprendente, sin embargo, a la hora de la praxis Bakunin se sitúa en las antípodas de su propio presupuesto, abrazando un elitismo condensado en una “plana mayor revolucionaria” que se designa a sí misma, actúa desde arriba y no rinde cuentas. Así, Bakunin fracasa en resolver la antinomia entre autogobierno y jerarquía debido a sus fundamentos filosóficos intuicionistas, que lo llevan a sentirse en posesión de la verdad acerca de la naturaleza humana y lo enceguecen respecto de la única mediación posible: la que ofrece la tradición del republicanismo popular y democrático |
| English abstract | In political theory, the contribution of Bakunin consists in a self-governmental position which defends the autonomy of individuals and small groups to determine its collectives aims and to federate each other. Such vision is justified by means of a philosophical objectivist materialism whose conception rests in a natural libertarian human instinct. However, and in a surprising way, regarding political struggle Bakunin places himself in opposition to his own premise, conceiving an elitist and self-designated “revolutionary senior leadership”, which moves in a top-down approach and rejects accountability. In this way, and because of his intuitionist foundations, Bakunin fails to resolve the tension between self-government and hierarchy. Indeed, that philosophical point of view makes him think that he is in possession of the truth about human nature and, above all, it makes him blind about the only possible solution: the mediation of popular and democratic republicanism |
