القوة و التنازع : منطق الوجود و العلاقات الدولية بين الفلسفة النيتشوية والواقعية السياسية

Abstract EN

This paper deals with a fundamental concept undertaken by Nietzsche to explain being in general and by the theorists of political realism to develop an explanation of international politics, this concept is none other than the will to power considered as a principle.

We have posed two fundamental problems: How to define the nature of this principle, and what are the consequences that follow from it? To answer this question, I adopted three methods: the phenomenological method to grasp the meaning of power in Nietzsche and the realists, the analytical method to examine the major concepts of two approaches, and the synthetic method to reconstruct the data under a structural view.

We concluded that the will to power is an original drive rooted in being (Nietzsche) and in the international system (political realists) and that the balance of power is only a passive effect and peace is only ephemeral.
