Interpreting the work of one of the most influential thinkers of
the 20th century, The Reluctant Modernism of Hannah Arendt rereads
Arendt's political philosophy in light of newly gained insights
into the historico-cultural background of her work. Arguing against
the standard interpretation of Hannah Arendt as an anti-modernist
lover of the Greek polis, author Seyla Benhabib contends that
Arendt's thought emerges out of a double legacy: German Existenz
philosophy, particularly the thought of Martin Heidegger, and her
experiences as a German-Jewess in the age of totalitarianism. This
important volume reconsiders Arendt's theory of modernity, her
concept of the public sphere, her distinction between the social
and the political, her theory of totalitarianism, and her critique
of the modern nation state, including her life long involvement
with Jewish and Israeli politics.
