Ce livre n'est rien moins qu'une philosophie de la guerre dans la lignée de Sun Tsu et de Clausewitz. Écrit pour les décideurs, qui dans le tragique de l'Histoire ont impérativement besoin de s'élever à l'universel pour apprécier objectivement les situations et les maîtriser efficacement. Une œuvre où se résument quinze ans de réflexion et d'enseignement, de voyages au cœur des armées de la planète, inscrite dans une tradition humaniste de haute culture.

This book argues that the fundamental foundation of Hobbes's political philosophy in Leviathan is wise, generous, loving, sincere, just, and valiant-in sum, magnanimous-statecraft, whereby sovereigns aim to realize natural justice, manifest as eminent and other-regarding virtue. It proposes that concerns over the virtues of the natural person bearing the office of the sovereign suffuse Hobbes's political philosophy, defining both his theory of new foundations and his critiques of law and obligation. These aspects of Hobbes's thought are new to Leviathan, as they respond to limitations in his early works in political theory, Elements and De Cive-limitations made apparent by the civil wars and the regicide of Charles I. Though new, this book argues that they tap into ancient political and philosophical ideas, foremostly the variously celebrated, mystified, and maligned figure of the orator founder.

La guerre civile est aujourd'hui un concept si dérangeant que les politologues et les philosophes l'ont écarté de leur champ de recherche. Dans ce livre, Giorgio Agamben s'attache à deux moments : la Grèce classique, où la guerre civile est essentielle à la cité au point que celui qui n'y prend pas part est déchu de ses droits politiques, et le Léviathan de Hobbes, qui en décrète l'interdiction. Stasis étant le terme qui, dans la Grèce antique, désignait la guerre intestine, l'auteur jette les bases d'une stasiologie, c'est-à-dire d'une doctrine de la guerre civile distincte de la théorie de la guerre entre États. Dans cette perspective, la guerre civile apparaît comme un paradigme constitutif de la politique occidentale

"Hobbes is widely regarded as one of the most important figures in the history of ideas and political thought, and his seminal text 'Leviathan' is widely recognised as one of the greatest works of political philosophy ever written. This book introduces the major themes in Hobbes' great book and acts as a companion for reading this key work, examining: The context of Hobbes' work and the background to his writing; Each separate part of the text in relation to its goals, meanings and impact; The reception the book received when first seen by the world; The relevance of Hobbes' work to modern philosophy, its legacy and influence. With further reading included throughout, this text follows Hobbes' original work closely, making it essential reading for all students of philosophy and politics, and all those wishing to get to grips with this classic work."--Page 4 of cover.
