    Hannah Arendt’s Revolutionary Leadership

    Get PDF
    The year 2011 saw the rise of “leaderless” models of protest spurred by the tactical use of diffuse social media to mobilize bodies, and the political pursuit of a more radically democratic and egalitarian politics in the face of rampant elite-class corruption. Occupy called itself a “leaderless resistance movement,” and the Egyptian revolution was touted “because it had no leaders, only coordinators of bottom-up energy.” To theorize the “power” of leaderless movements and give normative weight to principles of “non-representation,” scholars and activists often turned to Hannah Arendt. I argue, however, that Hannah Arendt’s political theory offers little normative or theoretical support for a politics of "leaderless revolution." To the contrary, Arendt highlights the importance of reifying power in the streets into political institutions, as well as leadership’s critical role in effecting this process in the interest of freedom. Hardly a path towards democratic founding, the ideal of leaderlessness represents a dangerous turn towards the absence of genuine political responsibility.

    Translating Revolution: Hannah Arendt in Arab Political Culture

    Get PDF
    This essay charts the way some of Hannah Arendt's key texts travelled to the Arab world. On the one hand, it presents Arab intellectuals' engagement - translations, applications and criticisms - with her work, on the other, the essay identifies Arendt's engagement with Palestine as an important source of her political theory. The essay concludes with an invocation of Arendt's appraisal of the Hungarian revolution of 1956 to reflect on the Arab revolutionary moment of 2011 in the counter-revolutionary context of today

    Crise et Modernité

    Get PDF
    On ne parle plus aujourd’hui d’une crise succédant à d’autres crises – et préludant à d’autres encore –, mais de « La crise », et qui plus est d’une crise globale qui touche aussi bien la finance que l’éducation, la culture, le couple ou l’environnement. Ce constat témoigne d’un véritable renversement : si à l’origine la krisis désignait le moment décisif qui, dans l’évolution d’un processus incertain, permettait d’énoncer un diagnostic et donc une sortie de crise, tout se passe comme si la crise était devenue permanente. Nous n’en voyons pas l’issue : elle est la trame même de notre existence.La crise, plus qu’un concept, est une métaphore qui ne rend pas seulement compte d’une réalité objective mais aussi d’une expérience vécue. Elle dit la difficulté de l’homme contemporain à envisager son orientation vers le futur. La modernité, dans sa volonté d’arrachement au passé et à la tradition, a dissous les anciens repères de la certitude qui balisaient la compréhension du monde : l’homme habite aujourd’hui un monde incertain qui a vu s’évanouir tour à tour l’idée de temps nouveaux, la croyance au progrès et l’esprit de conquête
