SILVEIRA, Luís Gustavo Guadalupe. A ideologia da morte. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2012, vol.26, n.51, pp.337-349. ISSN 1982-596X.
Marcuse discusses the ideological character of death through the analysis of some of its biological, historical, social, philosophical and religious aspects. The author reflects on how the power over people’s death also becomes a power over people’s lives. Therefore, liberation from the repressive way of life means taking possession of its own death.
