Heidegger E O Pensamento Contemporâneo Da Comunidade: Para Uma Hermenêutica Ontológica Do Ser-Em-Comum, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2012

Heidegger E O Pensamento Contemporâneo Da Comunidade: Para Uma Hermenêutica Ontológica Do Ser-Em-Comum, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

The article discusses some theoretical relations between certain theses formulated by Jean-Luc Nancy and Roberto Esposito concerning the being of the community and what could be called as Heidegger’s ontological hermeneutics of being-together, incipiently elaborated between the period of Being and Time and the early thirties. In a first moment, after discussing Heidegger’s politicization of some of Being and Time existentials in his texts of the beginning of the 30’s decade, we formulate the hypothesis that Heidegger’s thought of the community is not compatible with nazi racism, although there are some political pronunciations of the early 30’s where he himself …

Heidegger And The Essence Of Adjudication, George Souri Jan 2011

Heidegger And The Essence Of Adjudication, George Souri

George Souri

This paper presents an account of adjudication based on the philosophy of Martin Heidegger. As this paper argues, we can only hope to better understand adjudication if we recognize that adjudication is a socio-temporally situated activity, and not a theoretical object. Heidegger’s philosophical insights are especially salient to such a project for several reasons. First, Heidegger’s re-conception of ontology, and his notion of being-in-the-world, provide a truer-to-observation account of how human beings come to understand their world and take in the content of experience towards completing projects. Second, Heidegger’s account of context, inter-subjectivity, and common understanding provide a basis upon …

Heidegger E A Técnica, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2009

Heidegger E A Técnica, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

the article presents and discusses Heidegger’s main theses in his 1953 essay, “The question of technology”. These theses are related to Heidegger’s late hypothesis concerning Western history as the history of Being’s epochal sendings. This theoretical frame stresses the originality of Heidegger’s late analysis concerning the essence of modern technology and modern science in contrastto his previous analysis on modern science and nature in the context of Being and Time’s project of fundamental ontology, from 1927.


Technology And The Romanian Revolution: Performative Contradiction In The Nation-State, Jolan Bogdan Aug 2008

Technology And The Romanian Revolution: Performative Contradiction In The Nation-State, Jolan Bogdan

Jolan Bogdan

This article explores the link between Enframing (Ge-stell) in Martin Heidegger's critique of technology, and Judith Butler's recent work on performative contradiction. The discussion includes a reflection on Baruch de Spinoza's Political Treaties, linking each to the specific political example of the Romanian Revolution of 1989.


Heidegger E O Caráter Historial-Político Da Obra De Arte, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2008

Heidegger E O Caráter Historial-Político Da Obra De Arte, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

The text discusses the historial-political character attributed by Heidegger to the artwork in his 1936 essay “The origin of the work of art”. The main argument is that Heidegger’s analysis of the artwork is simultaneously an inquiry into the possibility of a new beginning in history by means of a genuine appropriation of history, a subject-matter that was altogether absent during the project of fundamental ontology. The essay on the artwork is considered as a first step in Heidegger’s formulation of his later thesis concerning Western history as the history of Being. Incidentally, this shift in Heidegger’s understanding of history …


O Acolhimento Silencioso: Ética E Alteridade Em Ser E Tempo, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2008

O Acolhimento Silencioso: Ética E Alteridade Em Ser E Tempo, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

Criticizing current interpretations that stress the existential solipsism of the resolute Dasein, the present investigation emphasizes Heidegger’s contribution to the question of the acknowledgment of otherness in Being and Time. The key to uncover the post-metaphysical ethical dimension of the existential analytic is to be found in the theoretical articulation between the phenomenological analysis of anguish and that of the call of conscience. The main argument is that by responsibly hearing to the strange appeal of conscience, resolute Dasein is simultaneously opened to the acknowledgment and welcoming of the other as other.

Heidegger E A Linguagem: Do Acolhimento Do Ser Ao Acolhimento Do Outro, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2005

Heidegger E A Linguagem: Do Acolhimento Do Ser Ao Acolhimento Do Outro, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

This text investigates the ethical implications of Heidegger’s conception of language, starting with Being and Time and then analyzing his mature texts of the fifties. It develops itself around two interrelated hypothesis: the first one is that Heidegger’s mature understanding of the essence of language was already defined in its major lines in Being and Time, although at that moment it had not yet received its full development. The second hypothesis is that the welcoming of Being that underlies and constitutes the core of Heidegger’s meditation on the essence of language brings with itself intrinsic ethical implications, since it provides …


Heidegger E A Possibilidade De Uma Antropologia Existencial, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2004

Heidegger E A Possibilidade De Uma Antropologia Existencial, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

The present investigation intents to discuss Heidegger’s reflections on science by focusing both on his analysis of it in Being and time and on his reflections concerning the possibility of an existentially grounded anthropology, exposed in the Zollikoner Seminare. In spite of the important transformations that affected Heidegger’s thinking concerning science after the Kehre, I shall argue that what unifies his understanding of it throughout his work is the deconstructive subordination of science to the ontological investigaton. By thus proceeding, Heidegger was able to criticize the dangerous objectifying and reifying tendencies implied by traditional scientific approaches of the human being, …


Foucault À Luz De Heidegger: Notas Sobre O Sujeito Autônomo E O Sujeito Constituído, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2002

Foucault À Luz De Heidegger: Notas Sobre O Sujeito Autônomo E O Sujeito Constituído, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

Partindo da distinção informal proposta por Foucault entre os filósofos sobre os quais ele escreveu, e aqueles a partir de cuja leitura ele orientou seu próprio pensamento, pretendo mostrar que a filosofia de Heidegger permite iluminar certos aspectos difíceis e problemáticos do pensamento foucaultiano, sobretudo aqueles relativos ao seu derradeiro interesse pela constituição ética do ‘si mesmo’ autônomo. O problema que cumpre discutir aqui reside em que nos textos das fases arqueológica e genealógica, Foucault tornara-se célebre por demonstrar a constituição do ‘homem’ por uma trama de discursos de saber e de relações poder, em análises que desmontaram impiedosamente as …


Hannah Arendt E A Modernidade: Esquecimento E Redescoberta Da Política, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2001

Hannah Arendt E A Modernidade: Esquecimento E Redescoberta Da Política, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

Hannah Arendt views Modernity as the epoch of the forgetfulness of politics in its democratic determinations, since the political and the public sphere were either totally reduced to the specter of violence and terror, as it happened in the case of totalitarian regimes, or totally absorbed by the bureaucratic administration of society’s economic interests. In this article I intend to discuss the main arguments that constitute her critical diagnosis of Modernity, retracing them to their inspirational origins, that is, Nietzsche’s and Heidegger’s critical assessments of Modernity. Finally, I try to demonstrate that Arendt has balanced her critical understanding of politics …


Hannah Arendt Entre Heidegger E Benjamin: A Crítica Da Tradição E A Recuperação Da Origem Da Política, Andre De Macedo Duarte Jan 2001

Hannah Arendt Entre Heidegger E Benjamin: A Crítica Da Tradição E A Recuperação Da Origem Da Política, Andre De Macedo Duarte

Andre de Macedo Duarte

O pensamento arendtiano elaborou-se à sombra das rupturas decisivas que obscureceram o presente, iniciando-se com a análise crítica do fenômeno totalitário para complementar-se com uma vigorosa crítica da tradição do pensamento político ocidental, cujas categorias não mais permitiriam a compreensão dos eventos políticos contemporâneos, nem ofereceriam alternativas capazes de revigorar a política e obstar a reinstituição do mal totalitário. O argumento deste texto é o de que, impossibilitada de fiar-se na tradição do pensamento político, Arendt não se contentou em simplesmente lamentar a perda da dignidade da política no presente por meio de uma rememoração nostálgica do passado greco-romano. Refletindo …
