O artigo investiga a concepção do poder em Hannah Arendt. O pano de fundo dessa reflexão, na autora, é o mal inerente às práticas de extermínio dos governos totalitários. A nossa exposição ressalta a dimensão constituinte do poder, na qual o poder está associado à capacidade de iniciar e de fundar ações com os outros. Nesse sentido, distancia-se da dimensão constituída do poder: Estado, governo e soberania. Em Arendt, poder diferencia-se de dominação. Os termos que compõem nossa abordagem são: mundo comum, condição humana, ação, espaço público, desobediência civil e potência.
This article investigates Hannah Arendt's conception of Power. She addressed this issue against the backdrop of the notion that practices of extermination performed by totalitarian regimes were inherently tainted by evil. This account is focused on the constitutive dimension power in that it associates power to the capacity of originating and founding actions performed together. State, government and sovereignty are not particularly analyzed here because they are derivative dimensions of power and not constitutional ones. Hannah Arendt defended a clear distinction between power and domination. The most important terms present in this work are: common world, human condition, action, public sphere, civil disobedience and potency.
