Abstract
Starting from the suggestions offered in his essay Why Read Hannah Arendt Now (2018), this paper aims to review the main aspects of Richard Bernstein’s interpretation of Arendt. This is particularly interesting in the light of Bernstein’s philosophical background primarily characterized by the influence of Deweyan pragmatism and Marxism. Within this theoretical framework, the paper argues how Bernstein can provide Arendt Studies with original, yet unexplored, point of view on the work of the author of The Human Condition.
