Recently
there
has
been
an
extraordinary
international
revival
of
interest
in
Hannah
Arendt.
She
was
extremely
perceptive
about
the
dark
tendencies
in
contemporary
life
that
continue
to
plague
us.
She
developed
a
concept
of
politics
and
public
freedom
that
serves
as
a
critical
standard
for
judging
what
is
wrong
with
politics
today.Richard
J.
Bernstein
argues
that
Arendt
should
be
read
today
because
her
penetrating
insights
help
us
to
think
about
both
the
darkness
of
our
times
and
the
sources
of
illumination.
He
explores
her
thinking
about
statelessness
and
refugees;
the
right
to
have
rights;
her
critique
of
Zionism;
the
meaning
of
the
banality
of
evil;
the
complex
relations
between
truth,
lying,
power,
and
violence;
the
tradition
of
the
revolutionary
spirit;
and
the
urgent
need
for
each
of
us
to
assume
responsibility
for
our
political
lives.This
short
and
very
readable
book
will
be
of
great
interest
to
anyone
who
wants
to
understand
the
forces
that
are
shaping
our
world today.
