Poder, violência e mentira à luz do pensamento político de Hannah Arendt

Abstract

This paper objective is to demonstrate the influence of the Hannah Arendt s German political-theoretical thinking around power and on the set of human and social relation that take place relative to political affairs to which we are intrinsically connected. These sets are based on the philosophical, violence and falsehood template generating disastrous consequences to the republic, since the author suffered the distressing experience of totalitarianism and went through rough times thinking of the idea of political domination, what matured her thoughts, making her have a second look at the political notions as conflict, and of political as consensus. Going through the thoughts of authors appraised by her, such as Nicolau Maquiavel, Thomas Hobbes, Karl Marx and Immanuel Kant, thus being important knowledge source for the political thoughts as edification, and in this since establishing a new tradition that brings in power dissimilar from violence. Also being the spokesperson in her time in view of the fact that connects it to the existence and creation of thoughts and ideas on the theme, particularly due to her private, historical experience. Arendt turns her biography into a synopsis on political affairs through writings of philosophical coinages, political philosophy and writings that reached the understanding on ethics that give us the idea that political affairs can be considered as right and communication
