Abstract
Firstly, it is analyzed the link that Heidegger makes between the categories of polis and politics. In second place, those same categories are analyzed in the thought of H.

The great opposition between both lies in the different perspective of analysis, ontological in one case and strictly political in the other. Finally, it is observed how, despite Arendt´s accurate criticism, a certain transformation of Heideggerien approach could provide us with a really critical potential more necessary than ever in our epochal crisis
