Summary: | Turning away from a purely political analysis of the revolutionary process, the article proposes a philosophical reading that focuses on ontological and historical potential it opened to the Arab peoples. The revolutionary event is conceived as a collective term therapy that may carry in its wake the archaic forms of life, and put an end to materialistic religion and dogmatic theology characterizing the situation at present. This change will be the fact of the younger generation, educated but rebellious, who will come to political and economic power in ten to fifteen years in the Arab world, even if their political role after the revolutions was limited by the return to authoritarianism or by the Islamists came to power.
