La política como orden y/o conflicto en Thomas Hobbes, Hamlet y Los viajes de Gulliver.

This paper aims at studying Hobbes' political ideas, and the starting point of this analysis is the differentiation suggested by Michelangelo Bovero, as regards the concept of politics: politics as conflict or contrast and politics as order or composition. Hobbes' thought seems to follow the second definition, but: Is it possible to exorcise conflict from politics and from society itself through the concentration of forces in a sovereign power, and the imposition of a universal order? Moreover, this document will try to approach Hobbes. political ideas, in the reading of two plays of the English literature: William Shakespeare's "Hamlet" and Jonathan Swift's "Gulliver's Travels", the former being written before Hobbes' work and the latter after it.
