Reflexiones filosóficas sobre el juego del Calamar -Squid Gameserie de Netflix

The series produced on streaming platforms acquire a great impact on the configuration of social representations and, at the same time, as a space for the critique of systemic contradictions. Therefore, the aim of the article is to reinterpret the economic, political, and social critiques underlying Squid Game's narrative. From the theoretical and methodological point of view, the reflection is based on Latin American Critical Philosophy, hermeneutics and a restructured version of Socratic mayeutics. The authors conclude that in this miniseries the games are an expression of the theory of social Darwinism.
