Cultural Reconstruction

Vorspann Während der NS-Zeit wurden rund 500 Thorarollen auf dem Jüdischen Friedhof in Berlin Weißensee vor der Zerstörung bewahrt. Bisher galt die Erforschung der konkreten Umstände als Desideratum. Anna Georgiev kann die Geschichte der in Weißensee versteckten Thorarollen von ihrer Einlagerung bis hin zu ihrer Verteilung nach dem Krieg durch Hannah Arendt im Rahmen ihrer Tätigkeit für die Jewish Cultural Reconstruction nun weitergehend rekonstruieren, dabei greift sie auch auf bisher unveröffentlichtes Bildmaterial zurück. Das Verstecken der Thorarollen lässt sich als Form von Widerstand und jüdischer Selbstbehauptung begreifen. Trotz drohender Deportation setzten sich die Beteiligten für den Erhalt der Rollen und somit für die Bewahrung jüdischer Traditionen ein.

The Relationship

AbstractThis commentary serves as an introduction to Salo Baron’s obituary of Hannah Arendt and surveys the relationship between the two. Despite their significantly different backgrounds and public image, Arendt and Baron shared a close personal and professional relationship that began in the early 1940s and lasted throughout Arendt’s life. Baron and Arendt played leading roles in the project of salvaging Jewish culture from Europe during and in the aftermath of World War II. Their work for Jewish cultural reconstruction was based on a shared outlook on the ‘Jewish Question’. Both Arendt and Baron were deeply alarmed by the dangers ethnic nationalism in Europe posed for the Jews and promoted political programs that sought to overcome the nation-state in Europe, Palestine and the United States.

"Feminist Interpretations of Action and the Public in Hannah Arendt’s Theory. Arendt’s typology of human activity and her arguments on the precondition of politics allow for a variety in interpretations for contemporary political thought. The feminist reception of Arendt’s work ranges from critical to conciliatory readings that attempt to find the points in which Arendt’s theory might inspire a feminist political project. In this paper I explore the ways in which feminist thought has responded to Arendt’s definition of action, freedom and politics, and whether her theoretical framework can be useful in a feminist rethinking of politics, power and the public realm. Keywords: Hannah Arendt, political action, the Public, the Social, feminism "

Women's Political Participation

Women's political participation in Indonesia can be categorized as low, even though the government has provided special policies for women. Patriarchal political culture is a major obstacle in increasing women's political participation, because it builds perceptions that women are inappropriate, unsuitable and unfit to engage in the political domain. The notion that women are more appropriate in the domestic area; identified politics are masculine, so women are not suitable for acting in the political domain; Weak women and not having the ability to become leaders, are the result of the construction of a patriarchal political culture. Efforts must be doing to increase women's participation, i.e: women's political awareness, gender-based political education; building and strengthening relationships between women's networks and organizations; attract qualified women  political party cadres; cultural reconstruction and reinterpretation of religious understanding that is gender biased; movement to change the organizational structure of political parties and; the implementation of legislation effectively.
