Martin Heidegger: Force, Violence and the Administration of Thinking

Author(s):

Abstract

In 1929, Martin Heidegger announced a new fundamental term in his thinking: Walten. Heidegger uses Walten to designate the primal ontological force of nature, but also brings it into connection with administration (Verwalten), specifically linking it to university administration. The article argues that in the Black Notebooks Heidegger develops a philosophical conception of administrative practice in the midst of his own administrative practice as university Rector in the era of Gleichschaltung.
