"Seule l'action est la prérogative de l'homme exclusivement ; ni bête ni dieu n'en est capable, elle seule dépend entièrement de la constante présence d'autrui" : c'est ainsi que, dans les premières pages de Condition de l'homme moderne, Hannah Arendt répond à sa manière à la question "qu'est-ce que l'homme ?" dans un livre qui présente sans doute la synthèse la plus complète de sa pensée qu'elle ait donnée de son vivant. Les ouvrages réunis dans ce volume sont tous consacrés à ce problème de l'action, dont ils élucident à la fois la signification philosophique et les implications plus directement "politiques". Publiés entre 1958 (Condition de l'homme moderne) et 1972 (Du mensonge à la violence), ils sont donc postérieurs au premier grand livre de Hannah Arendt, Les Origines du totalitarisme (1951), dont ils donnent en quelque sorte le contrepoint ; Hannah Arendt y montre ce qui, dans "l'humaine condition", peut toujours être source de résistance contre tous les processus de destruction dont le totalitarisme moderne a représenté une forme paroxystique mais dont certains traits se retrouvent dans toutes les sociétés modernes. Tous ces ouvrages s'appuient sur un travail considérable d'élucidation philosophique, dont on peut mesurer l'ampleur en lisant le Journal de pensée mais, contrairement aux grands livres posthumes, ils sont centrés sur les questions "pratiques", même lorsqu'ils proposent une interprétation d'ensemble de constructions "théoriques" aussi considérables que la science moderne ou la philosophie de l'histoire

In The War after the War, Johannes Kadura offers a fresh interpretation of American strategy in the wake of the cease-fire that began in Vietnam on January 28, 1973. The U.S. exit from Vietnam continues to be important in discussions of present-day U.S. foreign policy, so it is crucial that it be interpreted correctly. In challenging the prevailing version of the history of the events, Kadura provides interesting correctives to the different accounts, including the ones of the key actors themselves, President Richard Nixon and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger foremost among them. In so doing, Kadura aims to forge a synthesis between orthodox and revisionist interpretations of this important period. Kadura finds that the strategy employed by Nixon and Kissinger centered on the concepts of "equilibrium strategy" and "insurance policy." That approach allowed them to follow a twofold strategy of making a major effort to uphold South Vietnam while at the same time maintaining a fallback strategy of downplaying the overall significance of Vietnam. Whether they won or lost on their primary bet to secure South Vietnam, Nixon and Kissinger expected to come through the crisis in a viable strategic position.
