Book Synopsis Política y filosofía en Hannah Arendt by : Anabella Di Pego

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Una de las problemáticas fundamentales que recorre los escritos de Hannah Arendt desde sus primeras formulaciones en torno de la comprensión, su profundización de estos motivos en relación con la narración y sus desarrollos sobre el juicio es el desmantelamiento de la oposición tradicional entre la vida del filósofo y la vida política o, en otras palabras, entre el espectador y el actor. A partir de la reapropiación que Arendt realiza de la comprensión en Martin Heidegger y de la narración en Walter Benjamin, este libro se propone no sólo reconstruir el camino conducente a resituar las actividades intelectuales en el seno de los asuntos humanos, sino también delimitar las características de la peculiar concepción de la filosofía que emerge en íntima conexión con el juicio. De este modo, luego de haberse alejado deliberadamente de la filosofía y emprendido una crítica radical de esta tradición, entendemos que hacia el final de su vida Arendt retorna a la filosofía para reconstruirla como una forma de pensamiento que, a través de su articulación con el juicio, resulta capaz de desafiar y desmontar la vieja hostilidad de la filosofía hacia la política.
Book Synopsis Hannah Arendt and Cosmopolitanism by : Angela Taraborrelli
Download or read book Hannah Arendt and Cosmopolitanism written by Angela Taraborrelli and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-05 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hannah Arendt and Cosmopolitanism presents the first comprehensive study of Hannah Arendt's cosmopolitanism. Challenging the common belief that cosmopolitanism is a negligible or incompatible element of Arendt's thought, it unpacks various key elements of her philosophy such as her critique of human rights, the defence of the “right to have rights” as a right to belong to a particular political community, the scepticism towards the establishment of a world government as a solution to the problem of statelessness, and the importance she attached to the passport. Through this the text argues that Arendt is a theorist of cosmopolitanism in her own right, by reconstructing as systematically as possible an issue that is relatively neglected in the secondary literature. Taraborrelli shows how Arendt anticipates and develops cosmopolitanism in four main forms - moral, political-institutional, judicial, cultural - and how in her thought there is no insuperable contradiction between cosmopolitanism and belonging to a political community, or between cosmopolitanism and the conditions of political action.
Book Synopsis ¿Qué es la política? by : Hannah Arendt
Download or read book ¿Qué es la política? written by Hannah Arendt and published by Ediciones Paidós. This book was released on 2024-06-19 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recuperamos ¿Qué es la política?, un recopilatorio privilegiado para conocer el pensamiento de una de las mayores teóricas de la política. Dos acontecimientos de los años veinte marcaron profundamente el pensamiento político de Hannah Arendt. Al primero de ellos lo denominó el «shock filosófico» —la filosofía de la existencia de Jaspers y de Heidegger— y, al segundo, el «shock de la realidad» —la consolidación del movimiento nacionalsocialista en Alemania, el surgimiento del totalitarismo—. Ambas experiencias ponen en movimiento su necesidad de comprender, un intento incesante de traducir al lenguaje de la experiencia el peligroso y a menudo brutal choque del hombre moderno con los hechos. La introducción corre a cargo de Fina Birulés (Girona, 1956), profesora de Filosofía en la Universidad de Barcelona.

Book Synopsis Ágnes Heller and Hannah Arendt by : Ángel Prior Olnos
Download or read book Ágnes Heller and Hannah Arendt written by Ángel Prior Olnos and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-30 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reconstructs, through texts by Ágnes Heller and international scholars, a timely conversation between Hannah Arendt and Heller on the malaises of modernity. This valuable work will be appreciated both by academics and students interested in social and political philosophy, in addition to the wider public curious of intellectual history. Both Arendt and Heller are great thinkers with the ability to enlighten the great moral and political problems of our time. Although these two great figures belong to different generations, the dialogue reconstructed here provides a fuller picture of the demise of the great totalitarian forces of the twentieth century. Both Arendt and Heller, in a sense, accepted the burden of understanding the evils of their age. It is, however, Heller, by addressing the perennial problems of modernity posed by Arendt, who makes this conversation possible, illuminating the problems of this century.
Book Synopsis Acción política y mundo de la vida: by : Julio César Vargas Bejarano
Download or read book Acción política y mundo de la vida: written by Julio César Vargas Bejarano and published by Universidad del Valle. This book was released on 2011-12-22 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro está conformado por una serie de artículos que giran alrededor de la acción política y de los conceptos centrales con que ella está asociada: historia, generatividad, mundo de la vida político, autoridad, política, violencia, entre otros. Cada uno de ellos forma una unidad que intenta desarrollar el sentido y alcance de esos conceptos, siempre en diálogo con los problemas centrales que planteó nuestra pensadora política. Así mismo, los artículos aquí reunidos no sólo reconstruyen los conceptos y preguntas trabajados por Arendt, sino que también explicitan los supuestos y perspectivas de sus descripciones y análisis y proponen el diálogo con otros pensadores que o bien le sirvieron como punto de referencia para sus reflexiones, o bien son afines a su pensamiento político; tal es el caso de Aristóteles, Benjamin, Heidegger, Husserl, Levinas, Foucault, entre otros. Los escritos aquí publicados son producto del trabajo investigativo de la línea de investigación "Agere", del grupo "Praxis", adscrito al Departamento de Filosofía de la Universidad del Valle y corresponden al resultado del proyecto de investigación titulado: "Teoría de la acción política e historia en el pensamiento de Hannah Arendt".

Book Synopsis Natural Law by : Alejandro Néstor García Martínez
Download or read book Natural Law written by Alejandro Néstor García Martínez and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern moral and political philosophy is in debt with natural law theory, both in its ancient and mediaeval elaborations. While the very notion of a natural law has proved highly controversial among 20th Century scholars, the last decades have witnessed a renewed interest in it. Indeed, the threats and challenges as result of multiculturalism, plural societies and global changes have generated a renewed attention to natural law theory. Clearly, it offers solid basis as possible framework to a better understanding of human goods without contradictions and partial bias. The purpose of the present volume is to provide an overview of the history of this concept (Cicero, St. Paul, Aquinas, Melanchthon, Montaigne, Descartes, Leibniz, Hume, Burke, Kant, MacIntyre, etc.) as well as a deep understanding of ongoing research, both in Europe and in America. Furthermore, the specificity of these studies will be of particular value to philosophers, law-philosophers, historians, anthropologists, sociologists and theologians, and those concerned on such issues as the relation between law and moral norm, law and practical reason, and the presence of the idea of natural law in several prominent thinkers. It includes a selected bibliography on natural law. The book also provides an excellent introduction to several of the major topics in natural law theory making it useful both as a reference text and as a sourcebook for academics alike. "Natural law is a rich, complex, and highly disputed term. Since its first appearances in the history of Western civilization, it has been used both to point to God as the source of the moral order and to assert that there is an objective order of justice in nature that men and their laws ought to respect. In modern times, natural law theory gave birth to what we usually call “human rights.” Unlike the meaning of the term, the importance of an ongoing debate on natural law and on the theories related to it is undisputable. This is why I welcome today this new collection of essays edited by Alejandro Néstor García Martínez, Mario Šilar and José M. Torralba. Natural Law: Historical, Systematic and Juridical Approaches includes a wide variety of studies, covering key authors and issues in natural law theory. Younger students will appreciate the clarity of the chapters, and more trained readers the detailed and accurate bibliographical references that each of them offers. The editors’s choice to go from a historical approach to contemporary theories, and then to theoretical and more practical issues is also commendable. Students in philosophy and in legal theory will greatly benefit from this book." —Fulvio Di Blasi, author of God and the Natural Law: A Rereading of Thomas Aquinas
Book Synopsis Machiavellian Ontology by : Francesco Marchesi
Download or read book Machiavellian Ontology written by Francesco Marchesi and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies the philosophical implications of contemporary theories of conflict and proposes a new political ontology Sets out a description of the most influential theories of political conflict (Carl Schmitt, Hannah Arendt, Michel Foucault, Jacques Lacan, Louis Althusser, Ernesto Laclau), as well as a critique of them from a Machiavellian point of view Provides a new interpretation of Niccolò Machiavelli’s thought as a political ontology Situates the argument in the recent debates about Italian Theory (Roberto Esposito, Antonio Negri, Giorgio Agamben) and political ontology (Oliver Marchart, Miguel Vatter, Yannis Stavrakakis, Chantal Mouffe, Ernesto Laclau) Offers a new theory of productive political conflict, which provides an innovative interpretation of the role of Machiavelli’s thought in opposition to the most influential contemporary political theories and in view of a new account of global political space The twentieth century was the century of the deconstruction of all absolutes: of liberation understood as a critique of every meaningful structure. In this sense, conflict was understood as an instrument of the rupture of every form, institution and community. Niccolò Machiavelli is the first in our tradition to think about the productivity of political conflict – its capacity, on the model of ancient Rome, to construct new orders, institutions and forms of life. Francesco Marchesi offers an original reading of Machiavellian thought as well as a critique of some of the most influential contemporary theories of conflict including Foucault, Schmitt, Arendt, Lacan and Althusser. In doing so, he proposes an innovative, conflictual political ontology that, with Machiavelli, is capable of conceiving the affirmative, and not only deconstructive, power of conflict.
Book Synopsis Forgiving Philosophy by : Daniel R. Esparza
Download or read book Forgiving Philosophy written by Daniel R. Esparza and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-09-02 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores forgiveness as a philosophical matter. Responding to the curious omission of forgiveness in much of Western philosophy, it examines common themes and divergences on forgiveness in the works of Augustine, Kierkegaard, and Arendt. These writers understood forgiveness as a paradox—it must be contained to be given (Augustine), granted-yet-not-granted (Kierkegaard), and forgotten the moment it is given, as if never given at all (Arendt). Drawing on these insights, can forgiveness be then thought of as a hidden existential capacity and not as a magnanimous display of mercy? Can we imagine forgiveness as undoing the transgression we see, and secretly engaging with the imperceptible impossibility of undoing what has indeed been done?
Book Synopsis Hannah Arendt: lo filosófico y lo político by : Neus Campillo Iborra
Download or read book Hannah Arendt: lo filosófico y lo político written by Neus Campillo Iborra and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2014-05-05 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hannah Arendt va tenir l'enorme capacitat de plantejar política i filosòficament una sèrie de problemes crucials del segle XX des de fora de la filosofia acadèmica. L'afany d?Arendt per comprendre, li va oferir una nova forma d'entendre allò filosòfic, però també el polític. Filosofia i política, doncs, es van redefinint en el seu pensament de tal manera que aconsegueix plasmar una de les claus del pensament del segle xx: com seguir pensant quan s'ha constatat que la cultura de la modernitat, la ciència i la tècnica incloses, pot representar la fi de la humanitat. Aquest llibre és una indagació d?alguns escrits d?Ardent, en els que pretén trobar en la seua radical forma de pensar, aclariments sobre com pot una societat de masses i de consum fer front al perill del totalitarisme.
Book Synopsis After Cosmopolitanism by : Rosi Braidotti
Download or read book After Cosmopolitanism written by Rosi Braidotti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when social and political reality seems to move away from the practice of cosmopolitanism, whilst being in serious need of a new international framework to regulate global interaction, what are the new definitions and practices of cosmopolitanism? Including contributions from leading figures across the humanities and social sciences, After Cosmopolitanism takes up this question as its central challenge. Its core argument is the idea that our globalised condition forms the heart of contemporary cosmopolitan claims, which do not refer to a transcendental ideal, but are rather immanent to the material conditions of global interdependence. But to what extent do emerging definitions of cosmopolitanism contribute to new representative democratic models of governance? The present volume argues that a radical transformation of cosmopolitanism is already ongoing and that more effort is needed to take stock of transformations which are both necessary and possible. To this end, After Cosmopolitanism calls for an understanding of cosmopolitanism that is more attentive to the material reality of our social and political situation and less focused on linguistic analyses of its metaphorical implications. It is the call for a cosmopolitanism that is also a cosmopolitics.
Book Synopsis Hannah Arendt and the Jewish Question by : Richard J. Bernstein
Download or read book Hannah Arendt and the Jewish Question written by Richard J. Bernstein and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hannah Arendt is increasingly recognised as one of the most original social and political thinkers of the twentieth century. In this important book, Richard Bernstein sets out to show that many of the most significant themes in Arendt's thinking have their origins in their confrontation with the Jewish Question. By approaching her mature work from this perspective, we can gain a richer and more subtle grasp of her main ideas. Bernstein discusses some of the key experiences and events in Arendt's life story in order to show how they shaped her thinking. He examines her distinction between the Jewish parvenu and the pariah, and shows how the conscious pariah becomes a basis for understanding the independent thinker. Arendt's deepest insights about politics emerged from her reflections on statelessness, which were based on her own experiences as a stateless person. By confronting the horrors of totalitarianism and the concentration camps, Arendt developed her own distinctive understanding of authentic politics - the politics required to express our humanity and which totalitarianism sought to destroy. Finally, Bernstein takes up Arendt's concern with the phenomenon of the banality of evil. He follows her use of Eichmann in order to explore how the failure to think and to judge is the key for grasping this new phenomenon. Hannah Arendt and the Jewish Question offers a new interpretation of Arendt and her work - one which situates her in her historical context as an engaged Jewish intellectual.
Book Synopsis The Origin of the Political by : Roberto Esposito
Download or read book The Origin of the Political written by Roberto Esposito and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2017-04-03 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Roberto Esposito explores the conceptual trajectories of two of the twentieth century’s most vital thinkers of the political: Hannah Arendt and Simone Weil. Taking Homer’s Iliad—that “great prism through which every gesture has the possibility of becoming public, precisely by being observed by others”— as the common origin and point of departure for our understanding of Western philosophical and political traditions, Esposito examines the foundational relation between war and the political. Drawing actively and extensively on Arendt’s and Weil’s voluminous writings, but also sparring with thinkers from Marx to Heidegger, The Origin of the Political traverses the relation between polemos and polis, between Greece, Rome, God, force, technicity, evil, and the extension of the Christian imperial tradition, while at the same time delineating the conceptual and hermeneutic ground for the development of Esposito’s notion and practice of “the impolitical.” In Esposito’s account Arendt and Weil emerge “in the inverse of the other’s thought, in the shadow of the other’s light,” to “think what the thought of the other excludes not as something that is foreign, but rather as something that appears unthinkable and, for that very reason, remains to be thought.” Moving slowly toward their conceptualizations of love and heroism, Esposito unravels the West’s illusory metaphysical dream of peace, obliging us to reevaluate ceaselessly what it means to be responsible in the wake of past and contemporary forms of war.

Book Synopsis Does the World Exist? by : Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka
Download or read book Does the World Exist? written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 934 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Does the World exist?" There would be no reason to resurrect this question of modernity from its historical oblivion were it not for the fact that recent evolution in science and technology, impregnating culture, makes us wonder about the nature of reality, of the world we are living in, and of our status as living beings within it. Thus great metaphysical subjacent queries are forcefully revived, calling for new investigations to proceed in the light of the innumerable novel insights of science. This collection presents a wealth of material toward an elaboration of a new metaphysical groundwork of the ontopoiesis/ phenomenology of life sought to effect such investigations. The classic postulates of the metaphysics of reality, those of necessity and certainty here find a new formulation. Away from sclerotized ontological and cognitive assumptions and congenial with the views of contemporary science, the understanding of reality, of our world of life, and of ourselves within it is to be sought in the existential/ontopoietic ciphering of life (Tymieniecka).
Download or read book Legal Feminism written by Anna Simone and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-30 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume offers an overview of the theories and practices of Italian legal feminism, presenting both the main themes addressed and the main protagonists of Italian feminist legal theory. The book is divided into two parts. The first is dedicated to deepening crucial issues that directly concern women’s knowledge and lives from a feminist perspective, such as the interconnection between law, rights and justice; diversity, difference and equality; sex, sexuality and reproduction; citizenship and borders; deviance, criminal matters and security; and victims, victimology, and vulnerability. Each set of thematic issues is analysed by a current Italian feminist legal scholar, who engages with multiple feminist voices in order to emphasise the need for an interdisciplinary approach to law from a feminist perspective. The second part of the book is devoted to outlining the paths of study, research and practice of specific and renowned Italian legal scholars who have provided the foundation for legal feminism in Italy: Letizia Gianformaggio, Tamar Pitch, Silvia Niccolai, and Lia Cigarini. The book thereby offers, for the first time, a comprehensive account of the traditions and trajectories of Italian legal feminism, thus opening up a dialogue with other feminist approaches to law and justice. The book will appeal to scholars in legal theory, critical and sociolegal studies, sociology, gender studies, and critical criminology.
