This article intends to show how Hannah Arendt's work has become a compulsory and unavoidable theoretical forum in the realm of the political theory and philosophy. It intends to review and restate Arendtian concepts such as freedom, politics and philia, and present them as an alternative to the apocalyptic course of history that faces us as unavoidable. Arendt was a tireless judge of the pitiful state of contemporary political science because it could not differentiate concepts such as power, authority or strength, which have been understood as synonyms that wrongfully refer to a command-obedience relationship. Arendt marks them with her own seal trying to avoid the confusion that has been created around them. In this way, she defines politics in her very own way, radically opposing the canonical notion of politics as a "world of appearances" that arises where a plural group of free equal human beings shares words and actions.
