inquiry into scarcity how modernity acted for equality limitations

ishmael intends to explore the impact of scarcity as a pivotal concept for government choices in the genesis of political economy and to define its current use in contemporary politicalphilosophical arguments on economic choicesthe general hypothesis is that the concept of scarcity and its semantics notions such as rarity lack poverty have been fundamental in shaping the social practices used by political economy as a discipline born as a science of government in the 18th century this frame led to the establishment of a contemporary economicpolitical model that made inequality a systematic form of social living as it does not focus on the regulation of resource competition or the just distribution of wealth but on the constant vigilance in maintaining the ratio of scarcity within society ie unequal access to resources food economic culturalthe aim is to shed new light on the epistemic frame underlying the political governance choices of modern democracies thereby raising awareness about social policies based on the logic of increasing precariousness and competition for scarce resources the framework of the concept of scarcity and its epistemic implications have not yet been thoroughly explored through a philosophicalpolitical perspective that considers the history and logic of the development of political economy moreover there is still no rigorous philosophicalpolitical and historical conceptual study focusing on the use of scarcity as a pivotal notion in political governance and political economy as they are understood todayishmaels methodology will be an original interweaving of german begriffsgeschichte foucauldian analysis critique of legal devices and social philosophy in so doing it will be possible to analyse the historical semantics of the concepts at stake highlighting their contingency and nature as social constructs while defining the epistemic structure in which they were produced and ideologically exploited
