This chapter focuses on Hannah Arendt's Jewish writings. It argues that whether or not one agrees with Arendt's particular positions on Jewish political issues, her stance is of lasting significance: she assumes the existence of a Jewish people and a Jewish polity that is sufficiently strong, proud, and secure that all Jews have an inherent right to engage in vigorous political debate. Arendt's Jewish writings are a continuing model for engaged Jewish political speech.
Keywords: Hannah Arendt, political writings, Jewish writers, political writers, political speech
