Abstract

This article deals with Law as a way to distinguish, to place under the State's tutelage, the subjectivities historically forgotten by institutionality. It is an attempt to attribute to Law an inclusive role from a hermeneutics specifically focused on the realization of human rights in the light of democratic agonism ideas of Chantal Mouffe and of humanity ideas of Hannah Arendt, in view of the state structure of abandonment that Giorgio Agamben speaks. The reflection made in dialogue with Gündogdu and Miroslav Milovic starts from the premise that Law, for this purpose, should refer not to a must-be, but to a let-be.
