Éloge de la politique – group of authors (2020)

Seeking the common good for Plato, thinking of man as a political animal for Aristotle, defusing violence for Hobbes, placing limits on power for Montesquieu, understanding class logics for Marx, reconciling concern for humanity and love for the world for Hannah Arendt: each of the greatest philosophers over the past twenty-five centuries continues to tell us today, for our world, the greatness and necessity of politics. In an accessible manner, prominent essayists or leading academics present their interpretation of a major work that challenges our time. A fundamental book, destined to become a classic.
