{"product_id":"9780745666945","title":"Hannah Arendt: Politics, History and Citizenship","description":"The new study provides a fresh and timely reassessment of the political philosophy of Hannah Arendt. While analysing the central themes of Arendt's work, Phillip Hansen also shows that her work makes a significant contribution to contemporary debates. Specifically, Hansen argues that Arendt provides a powerful account of what it means to think and act politically. This account can establish the grounds for a contemporary citizen rationality in the face of threat to a genuine politics. \u003cp\u003eAmoung other issues, Hansen discusses Arendt's conception of history and historical action; her account of politics and of the distinction between public and private; her analysis of totalitarianism as the most ominous form of 'false ' politics; and her treatment of revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book is a balanced and opportune reappraisal of Arendt's contributions to social and political theory. It will be welcomed by students and scholars in politics, sociology and philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Polity Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47153774362864,"sku":"9780745666945","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780745666945_p0.jpg?v=1763640511","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780745666945","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
