SERRANO, VICENTE. THE ROLE OF AFFECTS IN THE POLITICAL THOUGHT OF SPINOZA. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2014, vol.63, n.154, pp.31-57. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v63n154.28182.

The article analyzes the most traditional aspects of Spinoza's political theory, the theory of the contract and the critique of religion, in close relation with the Ethics and the handling of the relations between affects and the imagination, considered to be the core of his political thought. Thus, the idea of conatus is interpreted from the dual perspective of politics and ontology, whose articulation with other categories included in the Ethics, particularly that of affects, offers an alternative to the idea of omnipotence that prevails in most modern philosophies.

Palavras-chave : Spinoza; ethics; ontology; conatus; political theory.
