Abstract Details

2009, Master of Arts, University of Toledo, Philosophy.
Working primarily with Hannah Arendt and Jean-Luc Nancy, I critique aspects of contemporary political thought with regard to the public, the private and the nature of the individual. I challenge the vision of the public and private spheres as being necessarily divided, as well as the assumption of the family into the private realm. Using Nancy, I develop a way of thinking about plurality, the self and our interactions with the political from a more holistic stance.
