In this article we discuss Pierpaolo Cesaroni’s book The life of concepts. Hegel, Bachelard, Canguilhem. The epistemological point of view that is proposed in this book aims to bring out the singularity of the epistemic field of politics, starting from the intuition of its proximity, or continuity, with the epistemic field of life. We try to focus our discussion especially on the historical-conceptual interpretation that emerges from the book of the work of Georges Canguilhem. The epistemological thought of Canguilhem (beyond Canguilhem) in fact allows us to leave the theoretical paradigm of modern political science.
