Militante as a Possible Normative Register of Indirect Ontology
ID: militante-as-tacit-ethics-of-indirect-ontology Title: Militante as a Possible Normative Register of Indirect Ontology Status: candidate Confidence: speculative Claim type: gap-identification Created: 2026-05-30 Updated: 2026-05-30 Sources: saintaubert-2006-vers-une-ontologie-indirecte Wiki homes: indirect-ontology, letting-be
Claim
MP uses militante in his own late vocabulary ("toute philosophie existante est militante"; "philosophie militante"). Whether this names a normative-attitudinal register of indirect ontology — the axis distinguishing it from the quietism a laisser-être / Gelassenheit reading invites — is the open question this entry flags. (Gap-flag, not a structural-core assertion.)
Evidence
- saintaubert-2006-vers-une-ontologie-indirecte — extraction note (
.extraction-saintaubert-2006-vers-une-ontologie-indirecteline 302, motif militante) + raw ~1045 "toute philosophie existante est militante" / "philosophie militante" (raw ~1075). The term is MP's own working-note vocabulary (Juror E Rule-18 targeted raw check, positive); "ontologie militante" (raw ~1355/1678) is largely Saint Aubert's guillemet gloss. - Live claim claims#letting-be-beneath-distinction — the attitudinal gap (laisser-être beneath activity-passivity vs the Gelassenheit quietism) the term would sharpen.
Counterpressure / Limits
Political-register risk: militante may be MP's political-rhetorical vocabulary (philosophie militante; combat aux côtés de l'homme), not a normative core of indirect ontology — promoting it as the latter over-reads the attestations. Single-source (one Saint-Aubert work, secondary). The stronger "ontologie militante" formulations are SA's gloss, not MP's own.
Payoff
If sustained, indirect ontology gains a positive normative-attitudinal register the wiki currently treats only methodologically; the Gelassenheit-vs-militante contrast becomes a candidate typed connection.
Status History
- 2026-05-30 — created at candidate (Confidence: speculative) via speculate-signoff v0 pilot (batch
2026-05-30-v0-pilot; jury verdict PROMOTE-CANDIDATE, 4-0). Source re-attributed at Phase-6 ratification from the defective citation[[saintaubert-2023-etre-et-chair]](0 militante hits) to the correct ingested source[[saintaubert-2006-vers-une-ontologie-indirecte]](General Rule 16). Live blocked by single-source; "core" → gap-flag language narrowing applied per Juror S. At ratification the second listed sourcemerleau-ponty-2005-world-of-perceptionwas dropped — it exists nowhere in the wiki (a phantom source carried by the speculate run) and anchors no part of the militante evidence, which rests wholly on Saint-Aubert 2006; the claim is therefore explicitly single-source.
