EnglishThis text intends to account for the rationale and justification of the origin of the civil State from the phenomenological aspects of Thomas Hobbes’ theory. Undoubtedly, perception or intuition, sensitivity, imagination or memory, language, movement, calculation, desire, wish, fear, among others, are what lead the subject to understand his own nature; and from it, to come to agreements with other subjects giving in his natural rights to a third party, and therefore, to give an end to the natural state to be able to preserve his life and to live in peace.
