Abstract

The paper discusses the reflection on violence by Austrian and German intellectuals of Jewish origin, in particular, H. Arendt, E. Voegelin, L. Strauss. It is shown that such phenomena as war, anti-semitism, violent actions during the First and the Second World Wars and interwar period had a significant effect on thinkers who had to reflect on the nature of violence, relying not only on historical, political and philosophical thought, but also on personal experience. As a result, the article presents an attempt to consider intellectual reflection of these thinkers in two ways – the political in violence and violence as a daily routine.
