FEMINISM (OR THE LACK OF IT) IN HANNAH ARENDT'S POLITICAL THOUGHT

To ask about feminism in Hannah Arendt's political thought implies here rereading its proposals from a critical point of view. Against certain positions which have wanted to see in these proposals reusable contributions for the critical-feminist orientation, what this article raises is that the Arendtian theses, and in particular their separation from the private and political spheres, can not sympathize with such orientation. At the beginning, we look at how Arendt thinks about this separation of spaces, to analyze in a second moment why this separation makes it difficult to talk about feminism in this thinker.
