The Three Dimensions of Hannah Arendt's Thought on National Cohesion
For a modern country,nation is an important political resource and the construction of national i-dentity is the basis of its well-ordered operation.However,globalization has not only deconstructed the internal co-hesion of traditional nation but also dissolved the effectiveness of national construction strategies.With the changes in time and space,the national construction today can not simply rely on nationalist sentiments for social unity nor the increase of civic rights and interests for political allegiance.It needs insightful ideas of thinkers.Based on Arendt's view of Jewry,We can summarize the three dimensions of the thought on national cohesion as follows:an inclusive society that tolerates others,the civic rationality to participate in public life in an orderly manner,and a country of justice-the ultimate goal of achieving national cohesion.
