THE PHILOSOPHER AND POWER: HEIDEGGER’S CASE

Summary/Abstract: This article describes the relationship between philosophers and the power. The power is subject of the „risky” forms of philosophical reflection, because by reflecting about power a philosopher is often tempted to make use of it for the implementation of his own philosophical ideas. This is shown in the example of the short alliance between the government and M. Heidegger during his tenure as rector of Freiburg University. A new impetus for this study was the publication of the four volumes of the „Black notebooks“ and their wide discussion which outreached philosophical spheres. This book analyses the origins of the relationship of the philosopher to National Socialism and its conjunctions to some philosophical positions of Heidegger. Is shown that „circulation in the power“, as a rule, comes to an end with „the heart-breaking tragedy” (A.F. Losev) for the philosopher.
