Hannah arendt y los derechos humanos

Abstract

The Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen represents a historical hallmark and a political referent. Hannah Arendt is a lucid observer of the link that is established between the principle of the rights of man and citizenship, the belonging to a political community; but this is based on being born in a territory. For those who cannot brandish this belonging or who have been disposessed of it, these rights are an abstraction without any validity.
