On Violence book by Hannah Arendt
By Hannah ArendtOn Violence book by Hannah Arendt
Written in 1970, with the Holocaust and Hiroshima still fresh in recent memory, the war in Vietnam raging and the streets of Europe and America seething with student protest, Hannah Arendt's now classic work offered a startling dissection of violence in the twentieth century- its nature and causes, its place in politics and war, its role in the modern age. Combining theory and lucid historical analysis, Arendt argues that violence and power are ultimately incompatible, and that one fills the vacuum created by the other - an insight which continues to offer a valuable framework for understanding the chaos of our own times. Inclues a brilliant introduction by Lyndsey Stonebridge. Published By Penguin Classics on 2023-11-30
