Maria Robaszkiewicz is Assistant Professor at the Department of Philosophy, Paderborn University. She is the author of Übungen im politischen Denken: Hannah Arendts Schriften als Anleitung der politischen Praxis (Springer, 2017) and the editor, with Tobias Matzner, of Hannah Arendt. Challenges of Plurality (Springer, 2021). Robaszkiewicz publishes widely in social and political philosophy and feminist theory and is a member of the editorial board of HannahArendt.net. Michael Weinman is Senior Lecturer of Political Science and Jewish Studies at Indiana University-Bloomington. He is an interdisciplinary scholar and teacher whose interests focus on ancient Greek thought, modern Jewish thought and the history of political thought, as well as the intersections of these three fields. Weinman is the author or editor of six earlier books, most recently Hannah Arendt and Politics (Edinburgh University Press, 2022), co-authored with Maria Robaszkiewicz, and The Emergence of Illiberalism (Routledge, 2020), co-edited with Boris Vormann.
Robaszkiewicz and Weinman provide an invaluable map through Arendt's political though, helping the reader to understand her relevance to contemporary debates. Both scholarly and accessible, this is an important work. --Timothy Secret, University of Winchester
