"The past year has seen a resurgence of interest in the political thinker Hannah Arendt, "the theorist of beginnings," whose work probes the logics underlying unexpected transformations-from totalitarianism to revolution.A work of striking originality, 'The Human Condition' is in many respects more relevant now than when it first appeared in 1958.

Hannah Arendt viewed Auschwitz and the Holocaust as a rupture in civilization that rendered traditional political and moral concepts obsolete. In her seminal work, The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951), she analyzed how totalitarian regimes manufactured a world where human beings were made superfluous. She argued that the death camps were not merely a product of past conditions but a new, radical form of evil emerging from thoughtless ideological zealotry. "The documentary value of this book is of the very first order - for historians, for jurists, for political scientists, for psychologists, and, last though not least, for all those who would rather face the truth than live will illusions in self-deception" Hannah Arendt).…
