Abstract
In the primal meaning that the notion of the common in the political field today reaches, a shared urgency stands out for thinking their conceptual redefinition spaces once again, mainly, that one related to the idea of Communism. Such effort demands going back to the unstable and critical conditions that category encompasses starting with their amazing archaic connotations. This article inquires into a fundamental but not so much thought meaning of the common, the initial etymological tracks which oscillate between solidarity forms in the constitution of all of “us” and the warlike composition practices for the reduction of “the other”. The common is confronted here as a “not thought concept”, enrolled in discursive teleologies that have conferred ambiguous meanings to it and redefining it as a naturalized shared difference by the coextensivity of similarity. Under this hypothesis singularities concur urging to think of communitarian nexuses from very other conditions of possibility.
