In 'Politics and Its Shadow,' Eugenio Trías explores political philosophy through a deep reflection on the human condition and structures of domination. The author analyzes how the inclination towards inhuman behavior is an inherent contradiction in our species, and proposes a 'politics of the limit' that aligns with the border nature of human existence. Accompanied by classics of political philosophy such as Plato, Aristotle, Hobbes, Hegel, Marx, Max Weber, Carl Schmitt, and Hannah Arendt, Trías examines the structure of domination that defines our condition. This book invites critical reflection on power and ethics in the current political context.
Eugenio Trías Sagnier was a Spanish philosopher. Critics have likened his work to Ortega y Gasset in the philosophical literature written in Spanish.
