LA EDIFICACIÓN DE LA TIRANÍA: APROXIMACIÓN A LA FILOSOFÍA POLÍTICA DE GIANNI VATTIMO.

The following article consists in a critical exploration of the political philosophy of Gianni Vattimo exposed in the works Adiós a la Verdad, Vocación y responsabilidad del filósofo, Comunismo hermenéutico, Ecce Comu and De la realidad. The political philosophy of Vattimo of the 21st century works as a justification for totalitarianism in Latin America. Its revolutionary commitment erodes the persuasive power of its proposal at the end of the last century, the weak thought. It starts on an approach to the transformative possibilities of hermeneutics and its original circumstances. Then, the claim of philosophy is examined in its relationship with the truth and the role of the latter in politics. Finally, the disharmony between the theoretical enunciation and the political reality of Latin America is formulated, how the construction of the political thought of the Italian benefits tyranny.
