Hannah Arendt e a violência justificável

sobre a condição política da raiva

Abstract

Violence is a political phenomenon, but It is unable to establish freedom. When she analyzed the crisis of american republic in her essay On Violence, Arendt was watching the fragile coexistence between power, violence, and other organizational elements of the political sphere such as authority.  Although she had made essential distinctions between those elements, We can see the interlacement of them in her analysis, which seeks to think about the complexity of the observed phenomena. Hence, We will see which are the limits for using violence as a political practice in the political struggle in a way that freedom does not be compromised. Therefore, We will also see the political role of rage by motivating and justifying violence as a manifestation of the very humanity of the political agents.
