【 摘 要 】

This article discusses some aspects of the contemporary crisis based on its relationship with temporality. We argue that a certain difficulty in the emergence of intellectual and political proposals for its confrontation can be attributed, among other factors, to a form of experimentation of the future, which is not fully determined by the expectation of perfection, perfectibility and progress. It also discusses the sensation of a possible imprisonment in the crisis in view of a certain form of its confrontation from the media and social networks. In the end, we approach perspectives that seek to go beyond the categories of pessimism and optimism. The insistence on the classification of intellectual diagnoses or political actions from them establishes a dependence on an expectation of the ideal future.
