| Sumario: | The aim of this paper is to undertake a reading of Hannah Arendt that allows us to understand the anarchic nature of politics. To this end, first we will analyse the difference between the oîkos and the pólis according to Arendt's analysis; then we will examine her concept of natality. This will allow us to understand the crisis of the political today, in so far as it is based on a pre-political liberal principle (the family, the command, the oîkos, the arché), and in so far as it is internally threatened by the closure to all incalculable beginnings, which for Arendt would be the very essence of politics. |
