The subject of the discussion is the significance of the ideas of Hannah Arendt (1906 – 1975) for politico-philosophical discourse of the 20th century. The participants disclose the originality of H. Arendt’s political philosophy, fairness and transparency of her politico-philosophical views, importance of her conceptions of the political, of political events, of totalitarianism and of mass society, of power and state, of virtue and humanity – for the understanding of the contemporary world. The core point, as exposed in the discussion, is H. Arendt’s idea of close relations between philosophy and politics.
