About the natural human conflictivity. The impossible community’s construction in Hobbes

Abstract

The   aim   of   this   paper   is   to   critically   reassess   the   complex conception   of   community   that   Hobbes   outlines   in   Leviathan on   the   basis   of   the   known   dichotomy   between   State   of Nature  and  Political  State.  Taking  this  premise  as  a  starting point,  we  try  to  show  the  aporetic  character  that  the  natural humane  conflictivity  has,  with  violence  and  fear  of  death  as extreme   forms   of   his   phenomenological   expression,   in   the establishing  of  a  political  community.
