The Status Of Women And Their Position Between Empowerment And Exploitation In The Philosophy Of Hannah Arendt

Abstract

The task of the research is to shed light on the interest in women's issues, their empowerment, and the defense of their rights against the destructive violence that dominates women, especially in her most prominent books defending this topic (On Violence 1970), where Arendt moves from power to self that enables women to defend this legitimate right in their society. Violence against women is the most reckless crime. It is an indication that the mind has closed itself off with oppression. The best way for feminism to confront it is to deal with it as much as the human mind can. Violence is part of the soul. It is an idea that must be rejected, but it is also something that makes it a type of feminism, in rejecting it... something that defies thought. At that moment, feminism becomes involved in the psychological processes that lead to violence. I borrow the idea of recklessness from Hannah Arendt, who proposes a new way of thinking about violence against women in our time.
