In accordance with recent ethological studies carried out between the 50s and the 60s, particularly by Konrad Lorenz and Irenäus Eibl-Eibensfeld, Gehlen gave a new value of instinct in human behaviour. A decisive role was attributed especially to aggressive impulses. Human beings are biologically defective and they can survive only with a particular strategy: they have to act to change the conditions of their natural life, and aggressive impulses, translated into work and self-assertion, are a warranty of good outcome. According to Gehlen, aggressiveness is necessary, but also problematic, because it needs to be expressed. Contemporary Western societies are characterized by high comfort and little hard work; democracy does not need violent fights, and aggressiveness is repressed. Ultimately, concludes Gehlen, these Societies are founded on principles that produce a decadent culture which, in its turn, leads to non stabilized situations. Therefore he forebode the return of the virtues of war and those of strong States based on hierarchical organizations. What he seems to propose, then, is an aggressive government for an aggressive nature.

Focus of the study are such central notions as oath, group in fusion, sovereign nation, and the relationships between freedom, brotherhood and Terror. Lévi-Strauss’ criticism at Sartre’s hermeneutical proposal is mentioned together with Lacan’s idea of the anticipated temporality of action. Sartre’s interpretation of the Revolution is finally compared with the one that Hegel puts forward in the Fenomenology of Mind.

Abstract: Several attempts, which have recently tried to empower again the philosophical crossing between phenomenology and hermeneutics, call for a re-examination of the main topics and themes at stake in such a project, which has dominated in many ways part of the 20th Century Continental Philosophy. However, given such a perspective, what I would like to show in the following essay is that, far from insisting again on the primacy of the thought of an author like Hans-Georg Gadamer, it could be of higher suitability to address the thought of another philosopher: Paul Ricoeur. Particularly, by reconsidering the main steps of his phenomenological- hermeneutical project, I would like to stress how Ricoeur’s philosophy, in comparison to Gadamer’s approach, is not only able to display a larger spectrum of confrontations, but also a stronger theoretical structure, which has its pivotal point in the notion of an interpretative deconstruction of the titanic subject through the appropriative mediation of the narrative text.
