Cold War: glimpses of a conceptual formation

Abstract

This article aims to think the Cold War (194789) under the conceptual viewpoint, after the happening heideggerian axiom, i.e., framing it as a narrative structure. The phenomena naming act is not unidirectional. The language says what happened and what happened re-says the language. In this sense, language is not only a tool to express concepts and thoughts. It turns itself into political arena. The world's division under a bipolar logic has shaped the political language into a dualistic paradox. Here is intended to relate this paradox during the Cold War's discourse formation with the emergence of other actors whom have relativized and reframed it.
