Abstract

The central argument of this book is that Hannah Arendt's deserved place in the history of Western philosophy has been overlooked, and recognition of her contribution is long overdue. In part a result of Arendt's own insistence on calling herself a 'political thinker' throughout her career, this is also due to a common tendency in philosophy to denigrate the political. This book explores the indisputable philosophical dimensions of her work. In particular, it examines Arendt's theoretical commitment to recognizing humanity as a plurality, which avoids the common mistake in Western philosophy o

Abstract

Explores Arendt's understanding of method: of what political theory is its purposes and limits and how it is best undertaken. It shows that her unusual approach - which has led some to believe she fails to offer a consistent method - reflects a definite conception of and approach to political theory.

Abstract

"In this volume, based on the series of Alexander Lectures she delivered at the University of Toronoto, Julia Kristeva explores the philosophical aspects of Hannah Arendt's work: her understanding of such concepts as language, self, body, political space, and life. Kristeva's aim is to clarify contradictions in Arendt's thought as well as correct misapprehensions about her political and philosophical views."--Jacket

Abstract

"The meaning and function of law in Hannah Arendt's work has never been the subject of a systematic reconstruction. This book examines Arendt's work and reconstructs her ideas through political, legal and constitutional theory, and shows that her engagement with law is continuous as well as crucial to an adequate understanding of her political thought. The author argues that Arendt was very much concerned with the question of an adequate arrangement of law, politics and order - the so-called triad of constitutionalism. By adopting this approach, the author suggests an alternative interpretation of Arendt's thought, which sees her as thinker of political order who considers as crucial a stable and free political order in which political struggle and dissent can happen and occur."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Abstract

Hannah Arendts (1906-1975) politisches Denken ist geleitet von ihrer Sorge um die Welt. Das Schlimmste, was politischen Wesen widerfahren kann, sind Weltentfremdung und Weltverlust. Die Vernichtung des Politischen, die Arendt im Phänomen der totalen Herrschaft analysiert hat, ist die Herausforderung der Moderne. Doch auch der way of life einer sich global ausbreitenden Arbeits- und Konsumgesellschaft birgt weltlose Tendenzen in sich. Als animal laborans, das sich in seinem gesamten Tätigsein auf seine Körperlichkeit fixiert, droht uns Menschen unsere Humanität zu entgleiten. Arendts politische

Abstract

"Hannah Arendt is regarded as one of the most important political philosophers of the twentieth century. Famous for her account of the banality of evil, her wide-ranging work explored such themes as totalitarianism, the Holocaust, statelessness and human rights, revolutions and democratic movements, and the various challenges of modern technological society. Recent years have seen a growing appreciation of her complex relationship to theological sources, especially Augustine, the subject of her doctoral dissertation and a thinker with whom she contended throughout her life. This book explores how Arendt's critical and constructive engagements with theology inform her broader thought, as well as the lively debates her work is stirring in contemporary Christian theology on such topics as evil, tradition, love, political action, and the life of the mind. A unique interdisciplinary investigation bridging Arendt studies, political philosophy, and Christian theology, Hannah Arendt and Theology considers how the insights and provocations of this public intellectual can help set a constructive theological agenda for the twenty-first century."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Abstract

This outstanding collection of essays explores Hannah Arendt's thought against the background of recent world-political events unfolding since September 11, 2001, and engages in a contentious dialogue with one of the greatest political thinkers of the past century, with the conviction that she remains one of our contemporaries. Themes such as moral and political equality, action, judgment and freedom are re-evaluated with fresh insights by a group of thinkers who are themselves well known for their original contributions to political thought. Other essays focus on novel and little-discussed themes in the literature by highlighting Arendt's views of sovereignty, international law and genocide, nuclear weapons and revolutions, imperialism and Eurocentrism, and her contrasting images of Europe and America. Each essay displays not only superb Arendt scholarship but also stylistic flair and analytical tenacity.

She seeks nothing less than an ontological foundation of the political, and in particular, the notion of human rights."" -- Bernard Flynn, The New School for Social ResearchHannah Arendt's most important contribution to political thought may be her well-known and often-cited notion of the ""right to have rights.""
