Abstract In the field of moral and política! philosophy, in particular, in the liberal political tradition, some theorists have shown the importance of emotions in the promotion of actions oriented towards the common good. In opposition to these presuppositions, there is the paradigm of evil, which reflects on the place of emotions as the activators of cruelty in the midst of barbaric contexts -fear, guilt, disgust-. It should be noted that theses domains have given a significant value to the role of childhood in the learning of civic emotions, even if they have also underlined the harm caused to moral and political sensibility by atrocious events -the (no) place of childhood-. Taking this literature into account, the present article aims to review the different comprehensive thesis about emotions in the moral and the political life, their cultivation since childhood, and their impact on contexts affected by horrorism and atrocity (paradigm of evil).

Palavras-chave : moral and political emotions; paradigm of evil; childhood; emotional blindness; silenced voices; cultivation of emotions.
