To evaluate Miguel de Beistegui's genealogical framework of crisis and assess its relevance for modern social, political, and ecological philosophy.
Conducted a critical forum debate centered on the conceptual frameworks presented in Miguel de Beistegui's monograph *Crisis: A Critique*.
Applied transdisciplinary and genealogical analyses to evaluate how crisis operates as a historically contingent regime of normative discourse.
Examined a four-part typology classifying crisis into deviation, exception, contradiction, and extinction or collapse.
Characterized crisis not as an abstract master concept, but as a historically variable normative regime used to interpret and govern systemic instability.
Demonstrated how divergent crisis typologies structure ongoing debates concerning ecological collapse, capitalist contradictions, and future political action.
