Antropologia filozoficzna w Trzeciej Rzeszy

The article presents the evolution of philosophical anthropology – a new philosophical discipline which originated in Germany in the interwar period. After taking over the power by Hitler, some of the anthropologists were forced to emigrate, while the rest of them stayed in the country and began collaborating with the new government. Erich Rothacker and Arnold Gehlen are the examples of various ways of involvement in Nazi politics. Both thinkers not only occupied high positions at the universities and in national organizations but also promoted the ideology in their texts.
