My future job.

It’s difficult talk about future. We can make some plans and design a way to develop them, but life always take his own decisions. Anyways, I really want to follow an academic career. From my early universitarian life, I’ve worked in research and teaching. I studied laws, I’m a lawyer, but my real interest is political theory. Law school gave me an institutional and juridical close up to political problems, and that allowed me have a more diverse perspective in my analysis. However, I don’t want to work like lawyer (never. It’s so boooring). I want dedicate my academic carrer to philosophy, because my perspective to all theorical problems is in a reflexive and critical way.
                I chose philosophy not only like a perspective for life, but a job. All my efforts have been for construct an academic carrer with philosophy, and so make of philosophy and political theory my lifestyle. Currently, I’m doing a PhD in Philosophy, because it’s a really good place for deep researching and productive reflection. Also, I’m doing a PhD because a doctorate is the actual standard for work in universities like a researcher.
                My actual investigation is about politics and cinema: in a philosophical way, I’m doing a genealogy of the word “gestus”, like a kind of action that haven’t purpose or end, nor beggining or origin. That kind of action is especifically important for cinema, and (this is my thesis) is really important for political action too.

                I want to go to another countries to deepen my studies, like USA or Belgium. In a future, I imagine me like professor in an university and, why not, like film critic in some reviews!

  1. Why didn't you study philosophy in the undergraduate program as well? Can you explain a little more about your thesis?

    1. I didn' study philosophy because my interest in school were very extense: I liked debates, I liked write, I did want to study History and Philosophy, too. In all of these humanistic interests, i thought that Law was the bigger and multidisciplinar. I'm not sorry for have studied law, it was a really good intelectual experience.

      My thesis... Well, in a more extense perspective, one the central problems of my investigation is political resistance. So, I'm asking how do nothing may be a kind of political resistance. In relation with gestus (gestual, or "gestos" in spanish), I have the deep question about a kind of action that doesn't do anything: how an action that doesn't do anything can be political? This is my thesis in a very resumed version, haha!

  2. I like the general idea of your thesis. I guess we can speak of 'resistance' in not doing when there's an idea that is moving us, not to move...If there's no principle in not doing then I wouldn't see it as a 'gestus'...I don't know, I might be wrong but that's how I interpret it.
