Carlos Alfonso Garduño – Arendt and Ricoeur on authority

we can find the conceptualization of the notion of ideology that we seek in


the Lectures on Ideology and Utopia. In them, Ricoeur emphasizes the need to understand the
concept in relation to three functions: legitimization of authority, distortion of reality, and social
integration. The legitimacy of authority depends largely on the successful establishment of
the ideological function, and not as Arendt seems to assert solely on the political activity of
individuals. The function of ideology as a
form to legitimate authority is, therefore, to create a surplus--‐-value, in a way that recalls Marx’s
account of the role of ideology with regard production processes. What Ricoeur adds, however, is
that surplus--‐-value does not have to be understood simply in economic terms. It can also be
understood as a function of a politics that favors the practice of power.

What Ricoeur shows through Weber, in


fact, is that ideology and violence are necessary to consolidate a form of authority, like that of the
state, and that this should not necessarily be condemned because the risk of an unsuccessful
establishment of the ideological function would be precisely totalitarianism. Función integrativa de la
autoridad.

Miguel Abensour.

Abensour opone Arendt a la servidumbre voluntaria de La Boetie. En el artículo se


quiere buscar acercamiento. [Según Hilb solamente el poder genera poder]. abensour dice que
Arendt jamás se hizo la pregunta por la servidumbre voluntaria. Se queda en la pregunta en los
arcanos de la dominación (y OT?). la servidumbre siempre es exterior a los dominados.
[Recordar que cuando Arendt habla de violencia es violencia política].
