Violência e poder segundo o pensamento de Hannah Arendt

Abstract

The paper aims to follow the way Hannah Arendt understands and discusses her thinking about Violence and Power and how these subjects differ from other authors of the social sciences and how some authors have an attraction for violence and encourage it, also using authors' views which have become classics as and how these studies aided understanding of how broad the subject is in the human sciences, perceive how the use of words can affect our understanding of the themes and their meaning about certain concepts, and understand how the sophistication of technoscience assists the increase of the means of violence. Science increases human power, but widens its defects, or arises from them, progress and genocide go hand in hand. Where pogroms were needed to eradicate an unwanted local population, a simple push of a button or turnkey can do the job, today's violence far outweighs what classic fiction writers thought, and the more shocking the improvement of murder removes the author from the act, reducing it to a mere bureaucratic event. Arendt's thinking goes the opposite way, it is a thought that broke the pre-established and embedded concepts in political thinking about power and violence and revitalized giving a completely different meaning and worthy of being deepened.
