Descripción
Sumario:The purpose of this paper is to offer an updated view on the discussion around the political theory developed by Hobbes in his work Leviathan, The Matter, Forme and Power of a Common Wealth Ecclesiasticall and Civil.\nTo achieve this, we will first focus on the most outstanding differences between the program in Hobbes and the political thoughts of "classical" thinkers, especially Aristotle. Then, we will make a brief summary of Hobbesian anthropology as an introduction to his conception of natural liberty and equality of the "state of nature" and the specific causes of the "war of all against all". We will try to\nelucidate the "historical" or "fictional" character of the state of nature, whose aggressiveness results in the "social contract," an instrument related to the modern theory of "representation," which we will also discuss. Before analyzing the main attributes in the Hobbesian sovereignty, we will delve into the foundations of "punishment" in the Leviathan's economy (section X). The conclusion will be exposed in section XI
