'How could such a book speak so powerfully to our present moment? The short answer is that we, too, live in dark times' Washington PostHannah Arendt's chilling analysis of the conditions that led to the Nazi and Soviet totalitarian regimes is a warning from history about the fragility of freedom, exploring how propaganda, scapegoats, terror and political isolation all aided the slide towards total domination. 'A non-fiction bookend to Nineteen Eighty-Four' The New York Times'The political theorist who wrote about the Nazis and the 'banality of evil' has become a surprise bestseller' Guardian

(Hannover, Alemania, 1906 - Nueva York, Estados Unidos, 1975) Arendt se ha erigido, como uno de los puntos de referencia fundamentales para el conocimiento de la filosofía política. Nacida en Hannover, estudió en Marburgo, Friburgo y Heidelberg, donde se graduó en Filosofía. En 1933, cuando los nazis ocuparon el poder, emigró a París. Más tarde se instaló en Estados Unidos, donde dirigió la Conferencia sobre las Relaciones Judías (1944-1946) y también la Jewish Cultural Reconstruction Inc. Fue catedrática en la Universidad de Chicago y enseñó asimismo en Columbia, Princeton y Berkeley.
