Ontology of Play and the Ambivalence of Resilience
Original language description
This chapter analyses the ontological implications of play and resilience, namely the “ontology of interactive emergence” developed in the framework of the resilience thinking and the ontology of play presented in the play-based cosmology developed by Eugen Fink. It presents play and resilience as essentially contested concepts and analyses the ways how can both play and resilience get instrumentalized. In resilience thinking the chapter discusses both system theory approaches and positive psychology approaches in order to show the resemblance with Fink’s ontology of play. The chapter argues that if resilience, that is nowadays very often connected to the questions of governmentality of the complex world of polycrisis, shall avoid the falling back into the modernistic scheme, it must remain radically playful in the sense of the play-based ontology proposed by Eugen Fink. The radicality of the playfulness consists in the character of the vital principle that is in Fink`s interpretation neither good nor bad - it presents itself as a refraction of actuality and non-actuality and, it guarantees that there will not be immanence without self-distance.
