Summary

"Leviatán" es una obra de Thomas Hobbes publicada en 1651. El nombre "Leviatán" hace referencia a un monstruo marino bíblico descrito en el libro de Job y los Salmos, y es utilizado metafóricamente para representar al poderoso Estado. La obra significó un antes y un después en la teoría política. Hobbes sostenía que el ser humano, en su estado natural, es egoísta y competitivo, lo que conduce a una "guerra de todos contra todos" en busca de poder y recursos. Para escapar de este caos, los individuos acuerdan un "contrato social", mediante el cual ceden parte de su libertad y poder a un soberano absoluto (el "Leviatán") para mantener la paz y el orden en la sociedad. Según Hobbes, este soberano debe tener autoridad absoluta y su poder no puede ser desafiado, ya que la rebelión solo conduciría nuevamente al estado de guerra. La obra es una amplia exploración de la naturaleza humana, la política y la sociedad.
