Covid-19, cuidar entre mascarillas, pantallas y un espacio-tiempo peligrosamente contagioso: una lectura fenomenológica

Abstract

The aim of this phenomenological article is to analyse the relationship of care in the context of contemporaneity and the pandemic. Methodology: The experience of care in the framework of Covid19 has allowed us to understand some physical and spatial barriers imposed in the syndemic framework. In order to reflect on this phenomenon, some philosophical postulates of Han and Lévinas, related to the splitting of intersubjective relationships in the 20th century, as well as the ontological construction of care proposed by Siles, have been taken as theoretical references. Conclusion: talking, being listened to and accompanied is therapeutic;while repression of the symbolic act increases painful tension. In the midst of this reality, it is worth remembering that, without care, man ceases to be human. Without care, from birth to death, the human being disarticulates, weakens, loses meaning and dies. If, in the course of life, everything he undertakes is not undertaken with care, he will end up harming himself and destroying everything around him. © 2022 Universidad de Alicante.
