«The Freedom to Be Free»: Hannah Arendt on «Salvation» of the World of Politics
Russian Sociological Review. 2024. Vol. 23. No. 4. P. 249–258.
Publications of recent years and decades demonstrate that, in addition to writing monographs and publishing collections of articles, Hannah Arendt (1906-1975), throughout her academic career in the United States, actively used the lecture genre and non-fiction articles to clarify and popularize the ideas of her political philosophy and her approach to the problems of our times. The publication of these lectures provides us with a fresh perspective on important aspects of her ideas regarding the political world and the role of political freedom, as reflected in the words and actions of humans in their common world. The focus of this paper is on Arendt’s lectures from the 1960s, which were dedicated to clarifying her two key works from the second half of the 1950s and the early 1960 — “The Human Condition (1958)” and “On Revolution (1963)” — as well as interpreting the central concepts of her political philosophy: Action, Freedom, Politics and Revolution. The article pays special attention to Arendt’s interpretation of human freedom as a gif and a miracle, which is proposed in these lectures. Freedom’s negative contribution to the world of human actions and words is to interrupt the automaticity of inertial social reproduction, while its positive contribution is to “save” the common political world for future generations.

In his main works, René Descartes, in addition to such an impressive metaphysical construction, over and over again gives promises of happiness, which must certainly accompany the study of philosophy according to a new model. What exactly is this happiness and is the Cartesian construction capable of fulfilling this promise? For whom can it come? ...

The article begins with several critical remarks about Konstantin Ocheretyany's paper. The conclusion of these remarks is that the dangers presented in the article under discussion, in the spirit of epistemic pessimism, are not frightening, and the problems raised are much older than the emergence of language models.

We use interfaces to disconnect from the situation around us, from the persistent experience of the outside world, from our neighbors. It is this ability of interfaces to legitimize “absence” that is usually overlooked in their analysis, as the emphasis is on concentration, management, and control. In reality, interfaces are not so much pragmatic and ...

При всей кажущейся ясности и недвусмысленности понятия «свобода» дать ему исчерпывающую научную дефиницию весьма затруднительно. У каждой отрасли знания свой подход к трактовке этого многоаспектного понятия. В ходе обсуждения, материалы которого вошли в настоящий сборник, свобода рассматривается с позиций философии, социологии, юриспруденции, психологии, нейрофизиологии и т.д.
Участники дискуссии рассуждают о границах свободы воли и субъектности человека, о соотношении свободы и ...

Механизм происходящих в мире изменений носит эволюционный, а не экологический характер. Иначе говоря, Человечество столкнулось с кризисом развития, который имеет три независимые составляющие: кризис индустриального общества (фазовый кризис), кризис научного мышления (эпистемный кризис) и кризис формата существования разума (социосистемный кризис). Доклад посвящён аспектам этого триединого кризиса и возможным путям его преодоления, не сводящимся к первичному ...

The spheres of the miraculous and monstrous are older than science, and perhaps even older than conceptual language. They belong to the reality of metaphors, or even deep emotions, therefore, in relation to science, their use, at first glance, seems evaluative and superfluous, because they do not refer to specific objects, labels and categories, but ...

AI literally comes to us from the future, not because it exists in some distant temporal reality, but because we, by attempting to construct an expected future through the experiences and affections evoked in us by the idea of AI, are unwittingly creating the conditions for the future's sudden arrival.

The digital today constitutes an environment of affects: it touches, enchants, captivates, incites, and frightens. What it does not do, however, is provide knowledge; rather, it takes knowledge away. Previously, the subject of cognition was the human being, though cognition itself was largely grounded in institutions, social contacts, performative rituals, and the activity of human-scale ...

Traditionally, a justification for believing something is a priori if and only if it is independent of experience. Throughout Western philosophy ever since Plato, some of the most divisive questions have been whether a priori justification exists, how it is possible, and how far it reaches. This book is structured around these three main questions. ...
