This work analyses the political questions in Jan Pato?ka’s thinking through the perspective of the impolitical, specially by following the theorization that Roberto Esposito gives on this approach. Firstly, the work studies the figure of spiritual person as agent and defender of a “non-political politics”, who tackles the problematicity of sense committed with community and beyond any mystical-religious interpretation. Secondly, it exposes an affinity between Pato?kian concepts of negative Platonism, war, and solidarity of the shaken, with the leitmotiv of the impolitical. The work concludes defending an “impolitical” sense of the State in Pato?ka’s work from his reading on the foundation of the First Czechoslovak Republic.
