Political crises and the American republic
Hannah Arendt examines political upheavals of the 1960s and early 1970s through the lens of political philosophy, considering them as challenges to the American form of government. The collection brings together four essays—“Lying in Politics,” “Civil Disobedience,” “On Violence,” and “Thoughts on Politics and Revolution”—that address questions of political conduct, dissent, force, and revolutionary change. Its scope connects specific crises of the period with broader questions about how a republic functions and responds to pressure.
