The Political Philosophy of Hannah Arendt Summary
| This study of Hannah Arendt, one of the most original thinkers of the twentieth century, presents an unusual reconstruction of her political philosophy. It is the first book to systematically evaluate the four major concepts underlying her work--modernity, action, judgement, and citizenship. Addressing each concept in turn, Maurizio Passerin d'Entreves also examines the integrity of Arendt's argument, providing a philosophical account of her theory of participatory democracy based on freedom, plurality, and solidarity. D'Entreves draws out the tensions and ambiguities in Arendt's work, arguing that her conception of active citizenship and communication provides the best starting point for the proper exercise of political agency. |
