Power, Judgment and Political Evil draws internationally leading experts into dialogue with Hannah Arendt's political theory. Whereas much scholarship to date has focused primarily on Arendt's theory of action, this collection examines contemporary debates about Arendt's understanding of the relation between thinking and evil. Drawing thematic inspiration from the famous 1964 Arendt-Guuml;nther Gaus interview, the book addresses two areas central to Arendtian studies. Each contribution probes her ideas about thinking and judgment and its relation to praxis and debates her relations with other historical thinkers like Camus, Cassirer, Heidegger, whom she did not always overtly refer but against the background of whose thought she was clearly writing. An insightful and intelligent treatment of the work of Hannah Arendt, this book will appeal to a wide number of fields beyond political theory and philosophy, including sociology, literary studies and cultural history.
