RE: Heidegger and Nazism

in #philosophy6 years ago

thanks for this. my two satoshis. dasien, as well as being thrown into a linguistic, cultural, national/tribal context, has at its core a questioning reflex. if developed, this exposes the contigency of one's particularities and loosens their behavioural imperatives. this can easily lead to a cosmopolitan orientation. since heidegger wants to produce a powerful ideology to justify his visceral ethno-nationalism, he has to repress the cosmopolitan possibilities of dasein, [and incidentally, repudiate psychoanalysis.]
