We Are Free To Change the World: Hannah Arendt's lessons on Love and Disobedience has been named by The New Statesman as one of the most relevant publications of 2024. In the book, historian Lyndsey Stonebridge (the foremost expert in the 20th century philosopher) details how we can apply Hannah Arendt's thinking to our tumultuous modern-day reality. Arendt fled fascist Europe and became one of the biggest opponents of totalitarianism, which is currently on the rise. We also discuss social media's impact on real-life discourse and the language used in crises.
Also, we hear a report from our correspondant in Beirut, Elsa Yasbek Charabati, about Spaniards living in Lebanon.
