ARENDT'S CRITIQUE OF POLITICAL JUDGEMENT

Since Kant did not write his political philosophy, the best way to find out what he thought about this matter is to turn to his ‘Critique of Aesthetic Judgement’.1

(Hannah Arendt)

Hannah Arendt made the statement cited above in the Lectures on Kant's Political Philosophy, which she delivered in 1970 at the New School For Social Research. In this chapter I shall first describe how she attempts to justify this statement. I shall then consider briefly how her case looks in the light of certain strategies and conceits put to work in the writings of Emmanuel Levinas and Jacques Derrida.
