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.
