The structure of organization of the political body in the conception of Hannah Arendt
Vol 10, No 3 (2009) • Filosofia Unisinos - Unisinos Journal of Philosophy

Resumo:
This study focuses on the investment in the systems of councils or other forms of spontaneous political manifestation, in which Arendt (1990) presents a conception of a political body inserted into local problems, thus, becoming the basic problems of organization, coordination, and deliberation. Her political thinking expressed mainly in her work On Revolution (1990), the political bodies created by the two Revolutions of XVIII century did not materialize as the full expression of a State Council. Likewise, this author emphasizes the system of councils or other bodies of spontaneous popular initiatives as fundamental paradigms for the organizational structure of the political body set up as a novelty unprecedented in the west history.
