Abstract

This paper deals with an incursion into the philosophical thought of Henrique Claudio de Lima Vaz to reveal the ethical foundation of the political community to reestablish the essential relationship between ethics and politics. We, thus adopted his philosophical Ethics, when he unfolds the subjective, the intersubjectivity and the objective structures of the ethical act and life. Therefore, we intend to understand the category intersubjectivity that establishes human sociability through the promotion of the ethical community recognition and consensus among men, and where the ethos ensures the group state solidity. In the end, we seek to have demonstrated that Lima Vaz necessarily conceives a political community as an ethical community, based on an objective ethos that is created by people, and guided by the transcendent good. As a result, a path is indicated to restore the essential relation between ethics and politics in which Lima Vaz seeks to overcome the ethical crisis that overwhelm the modern man, individualistic and atomized, in order to secure the achievement of his ethical essence in the political community, hence ensuring the ethical-state building solidity.
