Pourquoi un peuple devient-il l\u2019objet d\u2019une hostilit\u00e9 presque universelle ? La haine na\u00eet-elle des faits, des int\u00e9r\u00eats et des conflits, ou fa\u00e7onne-t-elle elle-m\u00eame les faits auxquels nous choisissons de croire ?<\/p>\n
Publi\u00e9 en 1917, au c\u0153ur de la Premi\u00e8re Guerre mondiale, cet essai de Max Scheler transforme une question nationale en enqu\u00eate philosophique sur les passions collectives. Contre l\u2019id\u00e9e rassurante selon laquelle la haine r\u00e9sulterait seulement de l\u2019ignorance, Scheler avance une th\u00e8se plus troublante : nos jugements ne pr\u00e9c\u00e8dent pas toujours nos affects. La haine s\u00e9lectionne les \u00e9v\u00e9nements, d\u00e9forme les perceptions et transforme chaque contradiction en confirmation.<\/p>\n
Le m\u00eame peuple peut ainsi \u00eatre accus\u00e9 d\u2019\u00eatre trop individualiste et trop soumis, trop rationnel et trop mystique, trop cosmopolite et trop nationaliste. Les arguments se contredisent ; l\u2019hostilit\u00e9 demeure. Scheler r\u00e9v\u00e8le alors la logique secr\u00e8te du ressentiment, de la contagion \u00e9motionnelle et des repr\u00e9sentations de l\u2019ennemi.<\/p>\n
Mais ce livre est aussi celui d\u2019un philosophe pris dans la guerre qu\u2019il cherche \u00e0 comprendre. D\u00e9fenseur de la singularit\u00e9 allemande, Scheler n\u2019\u00e9chappe pas toujours aux passions nationales qu\u2019il analyse. Son \u0153uvre acquiert d\u00e8s lors une force paradoxale : elle fournit les instruments n\u00e9cessaires pour interroger ses propres aveuglements.<\/p>\n
D\u2019une actualit\u00e9 saisissante \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9poque des r\u00e9seaux sociaux, des nationalismes et de la d\u00e9sinformation, Les causes de la haine contre les Allemands<\/em> montre que l\u2019accumulation des faits ne suffit jamais \u00e0 vaincre une passion. Il rappelle surtout qu\u2019aucune culture, si brillante soit-elle, ne poss\u00e8de une essence morale qui la prot\u00e9gerait d\u00e9finitivement de la barbarie.<\/p>\n Un essai d\u00e9rangeant, lucide et compromis, \u00e0 lire comme une anatomie de la haine \u2014 et comme le proc\u00e8s int\u00e9rieur de toute conscience nationale.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" En analysant la haine comme une puissance affective qui fabrique ses propres raisons, Scheler \u00e9claire les passions collectives tout en r\u00e9v\u00e9lant, malgr\u00e9 lui, combien le philosophe peut rester prisonnier de celles de sa nation.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":2421,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1897,45,1643,43,69],"product_tag":[3387,3386,3391,3392,3388,997,2088,3390,1548,3389],"class_list":["post-2420","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-histoire","product_cat-philosophie","product_cat-philosophie-politique","product_cat-politique","product_cat-sociologie","product_tag-les-causes-de-la-haine-contre-les-allemands","product_tag-max-scheler","product_tag-nationalisme-allemand","product_tag-phenomenologie-des-affects","product_tag-philosophie-de-la-haine","product_tag-philosophie-politique","product_tag-premiere-guerre-mondiale","product_tag-propagande-allemande","product_tag-psychologie-collective","product_tag-ressentiment","desktop-align-left","tablet-align-left","mobile-align-left","first","instock","downloadable","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"\n
