Overview

Generally regarded as the definitive work on totalitarianism, this book is an essential component of any study of twentieth-century political movements. Arendt was one of the first to recognize that Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union were two sides of the same coin rather than opposing philosophies of Right and Left. “With the Origins of Totalitarianism Hannah Arendt emerges as the most original and profound-therefore the most valuable-political theoretician of our times” (New Leader). Index.

Part I of The Origins of Totalitarianism. With a new Preface by the author.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Schocken's is the first hardcover edition of Arendt's 1951 volume to be available in decades. The book begins its study with European anti-Semitism in the 1800s and moves up to Stalinist Russia and Nazi Germany, which the author fled in the 1930s. This edition sports a new introduction by Pulitzer Prize winner Samantha Powers. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.

    A must read for all concerned for America's future.

    This book belongs in the required reading list of any social and political sciences classes. There are ideas here that were never taught in any class I have had and should have been. It is as important a book for us today as any of our country's founding writings and documents.

    Written and published in the middle of the 20th Century it is a timeless work.

    Should be required reading for everyone

    I once tried purchasing this book on CD but the media was corrupted. So it was a great surprise to see this in ebook format so I took the plunge and made the purchase.

    This book should be required reading for anyone concerned about how dictatorships arise. It's as timely today as it was when it was first written.

    it's a classic

    The author analyzes the totalitarian movements and governments, the role of terror, propaganda and individual isolation.
