description: We investigate the impact of pessimistic assumptions on the construction of repressive<br> State policies. If Rousseau and Locke, through optimistic assumptions regarding the<br> concept of man, erect their State models by encouraging political and economic freedom,<br> and the limited State, Schopenhauer and Hobbes, through pessimistic assumptions,<br> orchestrate their models of maximum and invasive State. The main objective is to expose<br> the accumulation of power by the State as a corollary of a pessimistic stance. The<br> research followed the hypothetical-deductive method through bibliographic research, data<br> collection and analysis. The initial hypothesis to be defended claims the State is an<br> institution that naturally demonizes the human figure in order to better control and govern<br> it, through its fears and linguistic manipulation. The conclusion links the imposition of fear<br> upon people with an increase in ruling power, with which, overburdening himself with<br> prerogatives and immunities, the ruler starts to address the fears of the governed unit and,<br> at the same time, decreases the margin for individual action.
