One of the most brilliant political theorists of the century, Hannah Arendt developed a metaphor of the social as an alien space monster gobbling up human freedom. In THE ATTACK OF THE BLOB, political scientist Hanna Pitkin traces Arendt's notion of the social and raises disturbing and compelling questions about what freedom means today.Raising questions about what freedom means today, this study seeks to resolve the paradox of Hannah Arendt's ideas. It criticizes Arendt's flawed concept but insists on the urgent reality of the problem that concept was intended to address, thus continuing her enterprise.
