Abstract
Hannah Arendt 20. yüzyıl siyasal düşünürlerinin en önemlilerinden biridir. Ünlü yapıtı Totaliterliğin Kökenleri (1951), Nazi ve Sovyet deneyimlerinde somutlaşan totaliterliğin Avrupa’da yükselişinin tarihsel ve toplumsal köklerini analiz etmektedir. Arendt’e göre totaliterliğin yükselişinde pek çok farklı faktörün yansıra ulus-devletin doğası ve geçirdiği yapısal dönüşüm de etkili olmuştur. Bu makalede Arendt’in Totaliterliğin Kökenleri adlı yapıtında beliren ulus-devlet eleştirisi incelenmiştir.
