  1. Hannah Arendt, les juristes et le totalitarisme : retour sur les sources juridiques d'un concept philosophique

    Schulze, Sophie
    Paris IIe : Éditions Kimé, [2020]

    "Dès leur parution, en 1951 et jusqu'à nos jours, Les. Origines du Totalitarisme de Hannah Arendt s'est imposé comme une référence incontournable. Mais cette oeuvre présente une dimension de synthèse des analyses (politique, historique, juridique, sociologique, ...) antérieures sur les systèmes totalitaires qui a été souvent ignorée. Ce livre se propose d'examiner les sources juridiques du modèle totalitaire arendtien. Il montre comment Hannah Arendt utilise aussi bien la théorie du droit d'inspiration critique, élaborée par des juristes en exil en lutte contre le totalitarisme, comme Ernst Fraenkel ou Franz Neumann, que la doctrine juridique dogmatique, développée par des juristes engagés dans les systèmes totalitaires, comme Carl Schmitt ou Theodor Maunz. Cet examen des références, explicites ou objectives, de Les Origines du Totalitarisme, permet de prendre la mesure de l'apport des juristes à l'élaboration théorique de ce nouveau type de régime. Ce faisant, il interroge le rapport au droit des systèmes totalitaires du XXe siècle."--Page 4 of cover.

  2. Hannah Arendt and the uses of history : imperialism, nation, race, and genocide

    New York : Berghahn Books, 2007.

    Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) first argued that there were continuities between the age of European imperialism and the age of fascism in Europe in "The Origins of Totalitarianism" (1951). She claimed that theories of race, notions of racial and cultural superiority, and the right of 'superior races' to expand territorially were themes that connected the white settler colonies, the other imperial possessions, and the fascist ideologies of post-Great War Europe. These claims have rarely been taken up by historians. Only in recent years has the work of scholars such as Jurgen Zimmerer and A. Dirk Moses begun to show in some detail that Arendt was correct. This collection does not seek merely to expound Arendt's opinions on these subjects; rather, it seeks to use her insights as the jumping-off point for further investigations - including ones critical of Arendt - into the ways in which race, imperialism, slavery and genocide are linked, and the ways in which these terms have affected the United States, Europe, and the colonised world.

  3. Rotterdam : sensitive times

    Ven, Lidwien van de, 1963-
    Rotterdam : Witte de With, Center for Contemporary Art, [2012]

    This politically inquisitive publication by Lidwien van de Ven is continuing the Witte de With's collaboration with photo-based artists to portray the city of Rotterdam, home to the institution. As an artist working in a realm parallel to the world of photo-journalism, Van de Ven chooses to reverse the city-specific mandate of the project and portrays Rotterdam as a microcosmos of global developments at the intersection of politics and religions.
