SANTOS, Soraya Vieira. The relationship between the public and the private: an introduction to the thinking of Hannah Arendt. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2012, vol.37, n.2, pp.223-235. ISSN 0101-7136.  https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v37i2.20717.

This article sets out to undertake an initial discussion of the relationship between the public and the private in the thinking of Hannah Arendt. This discussion is of utmost importance nowadays since the distinction between public and private spheres tends to be subsumed, to the extent that the private seems to be public and vice versa. Thus, given this impossibility of understanding what is public and what is private, politics as the ability to see beyond the immediate disappears and the social emerges.

Palabras clave : Public Sphere; Private Sphere; Hannah Arendt.
