Una aproximación Pensar y Educar, 4, 31-55.1888-2544https://hdl.handle.net/10115/30671This article attempts to bring us near Hannah Arendt's thought in relation with freedom. The essay is organized in the following way: First, we will approach the origin of our idea of freedom and will appreciate how the term changed from designing public citizen's free status to man's inner condition. Secondly, we will see the relation of freedom with will and the role which christianism has played on it, as well as the philosophical implications of such association. Next we will focus on political freedom as Hannah Arendt understands it and her distinction of philosophical freedom. It is important to point out the correspondence between the arendtian notion of action and freedom as well as between human matters and freedom. Finally, we will draw our attention to the threat that totalitarian systems represent for freedom and human capacity to break its ideological circle due to its thanks to its new start.spaFreedomWillActionPoliticsStartTotalitarisminfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
