This is rooted in a new form of universal solidarity with those who have been produced as superfluous and consigned to holes of oblivion at sea, desert crossings, prisons and camps.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peg Birmingham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399552523","brand":"Edinburgh University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45246676435081,"sku":"9781399552523","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_bbc19c27-deba-4581-af3a-06c3cc6ca3a3.jpg?v=1770701952","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/hannah-arendt-and-political-glory-earthly-immortality-in-an-age-of-superfluousness-9781399552523","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
