Titolo:
"Diritti naturali e umani nella politica di Hannah Arendt. Spunti per una lettura"
The essay intends to demonstrate
that Arendt remains, as within her criticism
to totalitarianism, there comes to play a
typically Judaic-Christian concept in which
the body and human nature are not adequately
emphasized. This ambiguity essentially with
regards to human nature has penetrated the entire
Occidental way of thinking. Both the glorification
of race on behalf of Nazism and natural
right are to be examined rather as a rationalistic
paradigm and discipline, as is suggested
by the Foucaultian studies. Following Weber’s
suggestions, from the School of Frankfort
and Foucault, the author intends to demonstrate
that Arendt is not entirely freed of this
disastrous tradition of modernity for the very
reason that she was not capable of activating a
new anthropological image equipped to oppose
the previous residual concept of human
nature.
