The purpose of this article is to develop a comprehensive view of the way in which Hannah Arendt's critique of the nation-state and ok nationalism is defined based on its consideration of the situation of different minority groups, from the Jewish community to the masses of stateless people. Given that these themes were central to Arendt's reflection in what could be called the early period of her work, the following reflections focus on her texts from the 1940s (conjuncture articles on the "Jewish question") and the ideas developed in the first two sections of The Origins of Totalitarianism.Downloads
