AMIZADE POLÍTICA PELO CUIDADO COM O MUNDO: SOBRE POLÍTICA E RESPONSABILIDADE NA OBRA DE HANNAH ARENDT

Arendt’s thinking is based on the experience of Totalitarianism, the complete destruction of politics, the interpersonal space and humanity itself and the conclusion that our civilization is inherently fragile. Consequently, Arendt developed a new definition of politics and its phenomena from the perspective of an interdependent plurality excluding all aspects of violence and sovereignty. Her insights allow us today a better understanding of the weakness of assumed strong governments like that of the US or of Venezuela distinguishing between the habits of strong leaders and the political action of responsable citizens in the tradition of Aristoteles’ public friendship.
