Between Past and Future: Eight Exercises in Political Thought
Author(s): Jerome (INT) Hannah; Kohn Arendt
Arendt describes the loss of meaning of the traditional key words of politics: justice, reason, responsibility, virtue, glory. Through a series of eight exercises, she shows how we can redistill once more the vital essence of these concepts.
