Ep. 51 - Hannah Arendt and the Politics of Civil Disobedience
In this episode we sit down with our good friend, and Arendt scholar, Dave to discuss Arendt's philosophy around the phenomenon of civil disobedience. How does her conception of civil disobedience differ from Thoreau? Were the events of Jan. 6 a manifestation of civil disobedience? Main episode begins at 31:56.
