Dr. Alessandro D’aloia

In this essay, Alessandro Umberto D’Aloia introduces microphilosophy, a method of using philosophical concepts as tools rather than treating philosophers as authorities. The approach starts with the problem itself and draws from different thinkers only when their ideas are useful to that particular problem. Using his own work on film, time and experience as a starting point, D’Aloia argues for a form of philosophical thinking that can move beyond established systems and recognise philosophy as something that happens in everyday life, research and problem-solving.
