This wide-ranging volume, at once reverent and critical, brings Hannah Arendt, that most European of political theorists, into a new world. The breadth and depth of this volume and this series is extraordinary. Once again, political thought is made new by meeting out of bounds.

This extraordinary collection of essays not only throws new light on Arendt’s conceptions of race and color, prejudice, migrants’ political actions, but also fruitfully reappropriates Arendt’s reflections on Jewish identity for creating a dialogue with thinkers of the Global South such as Edouard Glissant and Sylvia Wynter.

Marilyn Nissim-Sabat and Neil Roberts have done us all a great service in assembling this extraordinary group of scholars with the task of creolizing Hannah Arendt’s monumental thought. Thinking through, with, and beyond Arendt, they bring freshness to the many pearls of wisdom she offered in her love for humanity, and they offer a model of creolizing thinking in which critique and generosity meet in the spirit of understanding. As some of these authors also conversed with Arendt, the insights they offer into her courage spirit, kind heart, and powerful mind are gifts for generation of readers to come. Creolizing Hannah Arendt is a much-needed contribution to the ongoing task of shifting the geography of reason.
