Hannah Arendt: Eine Radikal-Konservative lenkt den Blick auf die Charakterzüge und wissenschaftlichen Leistungen einer äußerst komplexen Ikone. Das Schreiben über Arendt zeigt exemplarisch, wie stark Leben und akademische Tätigkeit stets miteinander verwoben sind. Dieses Buch ist ein Versuch, den Kontext, in dem ihre Arbeiten entstanden, mit dem Gehalt ihres Denkens zusammen zu bringen. Es versteht sich primär als eine Antwort - sowohl auf das anhaltende Interesse an Arendts Werk als auch auf die bitteren und manchmal emotionalen Angriffe von Seiten ihrer härtesten Kritiker. Es konturiert Arendts einzigartigen Beitrag zur politischen Philosophie und ihre wissenschaftliche Leidenschaft sowie die Vielfalt ihrer Schriften über Themen von öffentlichem Interesse und über philosophische Grundfragen. Arendt war eine Feministin, kämpfte für und schrieb über jüdische Anliegen und wurde dafür von jüdischen Autoren verachtet und geschmäht. Sie stellte die deutsche Sprache und Tradition über alle anderen, und doch ist sie als erbitterte Gegnerin der Nazis und ihres tödlichen Totalitarismus bekannt. Hannah Arendts Entwicklung lehrt uns etwas über die Beschaffenheit des menschlichen Geistes. Ihre Schriften befassen sich auf interessante und sogar spannende Weise mit unserem politischen Universum. Jene unter uns, die sich mit einer einzigen Tradition oder Kultur identifizieren, können das Problem des Relativismus vielleicht umgehen, nicht aber das des Absolutismus. Horowitz zeigt uns Lesern vor allem, was wir von Arendt über diese uralte Spannung zwischen Traditionen, Kulturen und Systemen lernen können. Arendts Sinn für Nuancen macht sie zu einer hochinteressanten Persönlichkeit innerhalb der Ideengeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts und bietet Ansatzpunkte für Kontroversen, die noch weit in das 21. Jahrhundert hinein reichen.

Hannah Arendt and Theodor W. Adorno, two of the most influential political philosophers and theorists of the twentieth century, were contemporaries with similar interests, backgrounds, and a shared experience of exile. Yet until now, no book has brought them together. In this first comparative study of their work, leading scholars discuss divergences, disclose surprising affinities, and find common ground between the two thinkers. This pioneering work recovers the relevance of Arendt and Adorno for contemporary political theory and philosophy and lays the foundation for a critical understanding of political modernity: from universalistic claims for political freedom to the abyss of genocidal politics.

"Under Weber's Shadow" presents an extended critical evaluation of the social and political thought of Jurgen Habermas, Hannah Arendt and Alasdair MacIntyre. Although hailing from very different philosophical traditions, these theorists all take as their starting-point Max Weber's seminal diagnosis of late modernity, the view that the world-historic processes of rationalization and disenchantment are paradoxical in promising freedom yet threatening servitude under the 'iron cage' of instrumental reason. However, each rejects his pessimistic understanding of the grounds and possibilities of political life, accusing him of complicity in the very realities he sought to resist. Seeking to move beyond Weber's monological view of the self, his subjectivsm and his identification of the political with domination, they offer alternative, intersubjective conceptions of the subject, ethics and politics that allow for positive future possibilities. But this incontrovertible gain, it is argued, comes at the cost of depoliticizing key arenas of human endeavour and of neglecting the reality of struggle and contestation. Engaging with important current debates and literature, Keith Breen provides a rigorous analysis of the work of Habermas, Arendt, MacIntyre and Weber and a highly accessible and original intervention within contemporary social and political thought. "Under Weber's Shadow" will therefore be of interest to students and researchers alike within the areas of social and political theory, as well as those within the disciplines of ethics, sociology and philosophy.
