Hacia una fenomenología a-subjetiva: Marc Richir y la transformación radical del fenómeno

This article responds to the call made by the French nouvelle phénoménologie to radicalize the limits of phenomenality beyond the framework of subjective intentional constitution. Focusing on the figure of Marc Richir, it explores his unique reformulation of the phenomenon as “nothing-but-phenomenon” (rien que phénomène), grounded in a radicalized appropriation of Husserlian transcendental phenomenology. Far from representing a mere overcoming of Husserl, Richir’s proposal enacts a critical reactivation (eigentliche Reaktivierbarkeit) of transcendental thinking. Through this, it becomes possible to advance the outlines of an a-subjective phenomenology: a philosophy in which appearing—irreducible to any constitutive, ontological, or subjective reference—is understood as an autonomous process of sense-formation.
