Abstract

This paper deals with some of the problems involved in the political theory of Arendt. She wants to emphasize the autonomy of politics, such that political activity is different from the personal and social. In this way, the public space excludes the private and the economic. Because of this exclusion, Arendt does not pay attention to certain key aspects of politics; aspects that are necessary in order to understand our present-day societies.
