Abstract
Este artículo estudia el tratamiento arendtiano de la violencia atendiendo a las actividades de la vita activa (labor, trabajo y acción) y sus respectivas tipologías de lo humano (animal laborans, homo faber y zoon politikón), desde su compleja vinculación a la (des)configuración de la identidad personal. Según atendamos a una u otra actividad, así como a la relación que se establece con el “mundo” y con “los otros”, descubriremos
distintas formas de la violencia y conexiones con las posibilidades de constituir una identidad personal. Si en una primera instancia, la noción arendtiana de violencia parece estar restringida a la instrumentalidad del homo faber, este estudio se propone explorar ciertas ampliaciones que la misma obra de Arendt ofrece y que, no solo superan la dimensión físico-instrumental de la violencia, sino también flexibilizan los límites prepolíticos en los que, en principio, parece estar rígidamente acotada.
This article examines Arendtean conception of violence by taking into account the activities of Vita Activa (labor, work and action) and their respective types of human beings (animal laborans, homo faber y zoon politikón), from its complicated connection to the (des)configuration of personal identity. Depending on wether we focus on one or another activity, as well as the relationship with the “world” and “the others”, we will be able to find out different shapes of violence and its connections with the possibilities of shaping personal identity. If, at first sight, Arendt´s notion of violence appears to be restricted to the instrumental mentality of homo faber, this paper aims to explore certain expansions offered by the same Arendt´s work, and which not only transcend physical and instrumental dimensions of violence, but also they make flexible its prepolitical limits within which, initially, it seems to be strictly enclosed.
