Abstract

Since pre-socratic philosophers, Philosophy has been an activity that distinguishes itself from profit and power. It is located in a "non-piece" regarding the economic and politic competitions. Nevenheless, this does not lead philosophy to indifference toward reality. Moreover, it is a necessary condition to its critic to power.
