Abstract

The article reflects on the contemporary political crisis and Hannah Arendt's interpretation of it, as a German thinker who questions the meaning of politics to understand freedom as a human reality. It is a philosophical analysis that seeks to comprehend the elements and conditions of the current political crisis, recognizing that this crisis is related to the existential and moral decline of Western civilization.
