Hannah Arendt and Political Glory: Earthly Immortality and a Post-Theological Concept of the Political (Philosophical Projections)

Peg Birmingham

4.9/5 (20392 ratings)

Description:In this Arendtian-inspired work, Peg Birmingham engages with a range of theorists, including Agamben, Balibar, Butler, Derrida, Foucault, Lefort and Ranciere, to explore three pivotal questions. Firstly, what is political deception, how does it differ from other kinds of lies and deceit, and is it possible against Arendt, to think of political deceptions that are constitutive rather than destructive of the political? Secondly, what is political violence? Specifically, what is the connection between political violence, deception, and the law? And thirdly, how do differing conceptions of the law allow for different conceptions of the political and of citizenship? Inherent to the third question is whether the law is inescapably violent, as many contemporary thinkers, including Agamben, argue, or whether it is possible to think of a conception of law that breaks with political violence. This also raises the issue of the status of human rights, their link to sovereign violence, and the possibility that the declaration of human rights allows for rethinking human rights as a force of opposition, disobedience and insurrection against the violence of sovereign law.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
