Abstract

We intend to discuss, in this article, the capitalist and environmental crises of today´s world. Our reading goes betweenphilosophy and psychoanalyses, searching to present some ideas that allow us to foresee, in the current conjuncture, the contours of a possible ethical and political approach to a world shattered by the environmental and capitalist crises. For this proposal, we have selected the following thinkers: Karl Marx, Fredrik Jameson, Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Antonio Negriand Michael Hardt. In the confluence of their ideas we search to construct new senses of an ethics for today´s world.

Keywords: capitalism; environmental crisis; unconscious; subjectivity.
