| dc.description.abstract | The research refers to an analysis about how Hannah Arendt articulates the relationship truth and politics in her theory of action. This theme, seen within his theory of action, seems to point to a debate about the limit of politics. The hypothesis that will be developed is that the place of truth, in author's text, doesnt have a normative pretension, of platonic character. But that there are times when truth, as factual truth, in countering with organized lie, as a threat of systematic destruction of reality, even not been politics, it "acts politically." A "political actuation" of the factual truth is done as resistance and not as an agent normative of human affairs. In that situation, it is occasional, fragile and consequently does not have the pretension to act as an absolute. The support and demonstration of hypothesis of reading, pass through three axes: the exaggerated character of the philosophical truth, of the platonic matrix, in its normative pretension; the risks of lying organized around of totalitarian elements as ideology and advertisement; and the way like the relationship truth and opinion were developed in the context of Arendt's work. The analyzes these elements open ways to point the kind of truth, in politics, it interests to Hannah Arendt. The truth that interests her is the factual truth. The indication of a kind of "political action" that this kind of truth has does reference at a reappraisal of ontology of appearance that permits a horizontal relationship between factual truth and opinion, and its tension with lie. Thus, the factual truth, by tension with organized lies, in virtue of their risks, it "acts politically" and resists to totalitarian maxim of "everything is possible." | |
