Repensar la espera: Un análisis crítico de la espera como temporalidad y sus limitaciones para entender estos procesos como fenómenos sociales
Resumen
Este artículo analiza críticamente la concepción convencional de los procesos de espera, entendidos exclusivamente como temporalidad, examinando sus limitaciones para captar la complejidad de las esperas como fenómenos sociales más amplios. Basándose en el paradigma filosófico del Materialismo Discontinuista, se sostiene que el tiempo de espera debe entenderse como algo más que un fenómeno singular, ontológicamente negativo y necesariamente perjudicial. El texto subraya las intrincadas relaciones entre el tiempo de las esperas con otros aspectos de la vida social, planteando la necesidad de ampliar las perspectivas de análisis hasta ahora empleadas. Revela la necesidad de un nuevo marco analítico que incorpore factores sociales, culturales e históricos al examinar los procesos de espera. Con este artículo se pretende dar otro un paso hacia la reconfiguración de la dimensión temporal de la espera, allanando el camino para la construcción un enfoque más matizado de este polifacético fenómeno.
