Hannah Arendt and the Law: Law and Practical Reason

Editat de Marco Goldoni, Chris McCorkindale
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 aug 2013
This book fills a major gap in the ever-increasing secondary literature on Hannah Arendt's political thought by providing a dedicated and coherent treatment of the many, various and interesting things which Arendt had to say about law. Often obscured by more pressing or more controversial aspects of her work, Arendt nonetheless had interesting insights into Greek and Roman concepts of law, human rights, constitutional design, legislation, sovereignty, international tribunals, judicial review and much more. This book retrieves these aspects of her legal philosophy for the attention of both Arendt scholars and lawyers alike. The book brings together lawyers as well as Arendt scholars drawn from a range of disciplines (philosophy, political science, international relations), who have engaged in an internal debate the dynamism of which is captured in print. Following the editors' introduction, the book is split into four Parts: Part I explores the concept of law in Arendt's thought; Part II explores legal aspects of Arendt's constitutional thought: first locating Arendt in the wider tradition of republican constitutionalism, before turning attention to the role of courts and the role of parliament in her constitutional design. In Part III Arendt's thought on international law is explored from a variety of perspectives, covering international institutions and international criminal law, as well as the theoretical foundations of international law. Part IV debates the foundations, content and meaning of Arendt's famous and influential claim that the 'right to have rights' is the one true human right.

Recenzii

This volume as one of the first to bring together many of her ideas on law in one volume is a timely contribution to Arendtian scholarship and provides material for those interested mainly in Arendt as well as for those mainly interested in law and legal theory… It could be particularly useful to introduce students to the work of Hannah Arendt.
The question of a stable, permanent and free order became the very question at the heart of Arendt' s political thinking and it is (...) thanks to Marco Goldoni's and Christopher McCorkindale's volume that this perspective is brought back into the academic debate.
[This book] comprises many worthwhile contributions and benefits from the diverse academic backgrounds of the authors. One special treat are the comparisons and correlations drawn between Arendt and other scholars, both contemporaries and successors. In summary, the volume not only provides for an entertaining reading but also enables us to learn much more than Arendt's legal thought.
...an important addition both to the growing literature on Arendt and to socio-legal scholarship more generally.
