What does social justice mean? What position does Europe occupy alongside the superpowers? In times of crisis, these fundamental questions come back to the forefront. In his new book, Tony Judt presents the political thinkers of the 20th century who dominated the major debates of this era with their arguments: Hannah Arendt, Eric Hobsbawm, Albert Camus, and many more. Especially today, in a time when politics and history are taking dramatic turns again, we should rediscover them.
