{"product_id":"book-1x9u","title":"Politics for Everybody","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this age of nearly unprecedented partisan rancor, you'd be forgiven for thinking we could all do with a smaller daily dose of politics. In his provocative and sharp book, however, Ned O'Gorman argues just the opposite: \u003cem\u003ePolitics for Everybody\u003c\/em\u003e contends that what we really need to do is engage more deeply with politics, rather than chuck the whole thing out the window. In calling for a purer, more humanistic relationship with politics-one that does justice to the virtues of open, honest exchange-O'Gorman draws on the work of Hannah Arendt (1906-75). As a German-born Jewish thinker who fled the Nazis for the United States, Arendt set out to defend politics from its many detractors along several key lines: the challenge of separating genuine politics from distorted forms; the difficulty of appreciating politics for what it is; the problems of truth and judgment in politics; and the role of persuasion in politics. O'Gorman's book offers an insightful introduction to Arendt's ideas for anyone who wants to think more carefully.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INAudio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":67150513897776,"sku":"BD1x9u","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/1x9u-Square-cover.png?v=1782488301","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-1x9u","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
