Der christliche Nationalismus in den USA

In diesem Buch analysiert Hannah Arendt den Nationalsozialismus und den Stalinismus als verwandte Herrschaftstypen und als Folgeerscheinungen von Antisemitismus und Imperialismus. Das Werk ist in drei Essays strukturiert: 'Antisemitismus', 'Imperialismus' und 'Totalitarismus'. Arendt beschreibt die Voraussetzungen und den Aufstieg des Antisemitismus in Europa, den Neuen Imperialismus und die Entstehung des Totalitarismus. Sie argumentiert, dass Totalitarismus eine neue Form der Regierung ist, die sich durch die Anwendung von Terror zur Unterwerfung der Massenbevölkerung und nicht nur politischer Gegner unterscheidet. Das Buch beleuchtet auch die Mechanismen totalitärer Bewegungen und ihre Auswirkungen auf die Gesellschaft und den Staat.
