EIZIRIK, Marisa Faermann  e  TREVISAN, Juliano Fontana. From the genealogy of the moral to the moral of the resentment: the cruelty in the bad habits. Psicol. cienc. prof. [online]. 2006, vol.26, n.3, pp. 360-367. ISSN 1414-9893.

We live in an age in which the cruelty of some human actions (interpreted as violent and stripped of any love to others) seems to hit the apex, grading frequent journalistic subjects. Beside this reality, the `bad man' is created; by contrast, it arises the `good man' (who is not able to commit those actions). After the reflection about the nietzschean idea of the genealogy of the moral and about his concept of cruelty, we hope, in a first moment, to question not only about the `bad man' but also about the `good man', aiming to think not only about his or her personality structures, but about the sociohistorical conditions that enabled the emergence of these two sorts of man, and, in a second moment, to think about human cruelty from a historical perspective, contributing to a view about the human being that is less dicotomic and more social, political and tragic.

Palavras-chave : Nietzsche; Cruelty; Moral; `Bad man x good man'.
