Arendt, Eichmann and the Politics of the Past offers a critical analysis of the original American debate over Hannah Arendt’s report of the trial of Adolf Eichmann. First published in 2008, Tuija Parvikko’s book discusses both the campaign against Arendt organised by American Zionist organisations and the controversy Arendt’s report caused within American Jewish intellectual circles. Parvikko’s analysis carefully draws from the historical background of the report, discussing Arendt’s early studies of Zionism and her critique of the Jewish state. The volume also gives an account of Eichmann’s capture in Argentina and the reception of the report among legal scholars and the world press.;This edition includes a new prologue in which Parvikko reflects on her own account in connection to recent academic discussions on the controversy. The author’s analysis also covers contributions that have attempted to follow Arendt’s notion of thinking without banisters. With them, Parvikko engages in debate about going beyond Arendt’s theoretical reflections on cohabitation, sharing the world, and discussing the new political evils of the present world without pregiven norms and patterns of thought.

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.

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.

Longtemps tenue à l'écart du monde académique, l'oeuvre de Hannah Arendt - désormais largement publiée et traduite - suscite aujourd'hui l'intérêt d'un nombre considérable de travaux, colloques et publications dans le monde entier. En revenant sur les principaux évènements de sa vie, ce Cahier dresse le portrait de cette "théoricienne de la politique" sans pour autant négliger les vives polémiques qui ont marqué sa carrière.Le volume rassemble des contributions qui évoquent notamment son travail majeur sur le totalitarisme, les catégories de sa pensée politique et la centralité de l'action, son insistance sur la responsabilité et le jugement ainsi que son analyse du monde moderne. Il revient sur son expérience historique et personnelle, les moments forts de sa vie et la réflexion qu'ils ont suscités en elle, en particulier sa judéité.Des extraits de correspondance (avec Judah Magnes, David Riesman, Hermann Broch, Hilde Frankel, Kurt et Helen Wolff) dévoilent par ailleurs des facettes moins connues de sa personnalité et de nombreux inédits, extraits de cours ou de conférences issus des archives de la bibliothèque du Congrès à Washington, viennent compléter l'ensemble.
