ARENDT REDEFINES THE MEANING OF ETHICS AND POLITICS IN A POST-METAPHYSICAL THEORETICAL KEY, DISRUPTING BOTH TELEOLOGICAL AND PRESCRIPTIVE TIES THAT HAVE TRADITIONALLY BOUND WESTERN PHILOSOPHICAL THINKING ABOUT POLITICAL ACTION AND ETHICAL BEHAVIOR. IN THIS PROJECT, ARENDT STRESSES THE MODE OF BEING OF SUBVERSIVE EXEMPLARITY, I.E., THE CAPACITY TO PUBLICLY APPEAR AS RESISTANT AGAINST POLITICAL VIOLENCE, EVEN WHEN THIS APPEARANCE IS MERELY PASSIVE AND SILENTLY. TO DEMONSTRATE THE POST-METAPHYSICAL ETHICAL-POLITICAL IMPACT OF THE SUBVERSIVE EXEMPLARITY, I ANALYZE SOME TEXTS IN WHICH ARENDT HIGHLIGHTS THE PROJECT OF A NEGATIVE AND REFLEXIVE ETHICS, ONE THAT DOES NOT DETERMINE HOW TO ACT, BUT WHAT NOT TO DO OR WHEN TO INTERRUPT A CERTAIN COURSE OF ACTION.Downloads
