Description

Book Synopsis

This book presents an original understanding of Arendt in the context of comparative political theory. The author discusses Arendtâs acute and perceptive view of violence as well as practical applications of her thought in a comparative context.

The book examines Hannah Arendtâs ideas about politics and violence provoked by the horrors of totalitarianism. It applies the rich potential of Arendtâs insights to the wider cultural context and discourse of nonviolence. Through case studies of India and Iran, it presents a new way of reading Arendtâs understanding and critique of violence beyond the simple analysis of her work on power and violence.

An original, nuanced and meaningful guide to Hannah Arendt, the book will be essential reading for students and scholars in politics, philosophy and peace and conflict studies.
