The political commitment of Heidegger with nazism has been subjected, since 1946, to strong moral criticism. In 1989, Víctor Farías Heidegger et le nazisme, failed to submit any new hard data to what was already known since 1962. This article demonstrates that Farías’ book is biased and not conclusive as regards the “new” evidence submitted in it. Furthermore, neither Farías nor other “moral” criticisms of his kind have been able to demonstrate a direct link between Heidegger’s political commitment and his philosophical thought. Heidegger’s philosophy should be criticized, but in a rational rigorous argumentation, already proposed either by neoweberians or by Habermas.
