Abstract

Fabrice Hadjadj’s phenomenological approach shows the relevance of the relational proposal from the anthropological perspective. His chapter discusses in a masterful way the economic role of the relationship between man and woman, highlighting the role that this relationship has for an ecological conception that is not merely romantic, but authentically realistic and effective. Without a home (oikos), the relationship between man and woman cannot develop. For this reason, the future of the world depends on caring for a space that allows the times and spaces of love, which, being generative, can change the world. With great acumen, Hadjadj observes that a mother never gives birth to an iPhone, but that Steve Jobs’ mother gave birth to the founder of the company that produces it. The argument is based simultaneously on the analysis of our present time as mirrored in contemporary literature and classical thought. Without romantic and utopian nostalgia for the past, the author shows a connection that today is absolutely absent from the common narrative, highlighting the value for the real economy of the relationship between man and woman.
