ESTRADA MESA, Diego Alejandro. POLITICS AS LIBERTY AND POWER: AN APROACH TO HANNAH ARENDT. Escritos - Fac. Filos. Let. Univ. Pontif. Bolivar. [online]. 2012, vol.20, n.44, pp.47-67. ISSN 0120-1263.

The following paper intends to approach to two important concepts in the reflection of the German Jewish philosopher Hannah Arendt. Firstly, the concept of "Politics" will be elucidated in order to exhibit its sense in terms of the ordinary use of this concept. Secondly, the notions of Liberty and Power, which are central to understand the sense of Politics, will be explored. Finally, the concept of logos, which is central to understand the problem of liberty as an act in the exercise of power, will be also explored.

Keywords : Politics; Liberty; Power; Action; Language; Judgment.
