In this video we take a tour of these three important concepts of the political theorist Hannah Arendt. On totalitarianism, she expatiates in her first important work, The Origins of Totalitarianism, published in 1951. The "banality of evil" is the subtitle of her work Eichmann in Jerusalem: a study on the banality of evil, in the which deepens his report on the trial of the person responsible for the logistics of the "final solution" during the Nazi regime, and presents his controversial ideas about it for the first time.
Finally, the concept of "human condition" is the one that leads her most important philosophical work, The human condition, in which she analyzes what for her are the three activities that shape the "vita activa" of human beings: labor , work and action, the latter being the object of his deepest research, in light of the concept of "praxis", a legacy of Greek thought.
