Revolution und seinsgeschichtliches Denken

The paper intends to address the question of the relationship between revolution and the thinking of the history of Being. Was Martin Heidegger a philosopher of revolution? This essay seeks to show, how revolution may be understood in Heidegger’s works: not as a return to origins, but as a change of sight, which proceeds endlessly. In this way, the concept of politics receives a new sense, a meta-political sense, because the roots of political events (of war, too) do not have a political origin, or rather an ontological one.
