In addition, he seeks to illustrate two dimensions of judgment: modesty--who am I to judge? and arrogance--how dare you judge me? He demonstrates the extent to which modesty and arrogance are linked with distance. The claims who am I to judge? and how dare you judge me? become questions of how much distance--in time, space, and imagination--is necessary or appropriate for judgment. Sharpe sees \u003ci\u003eEichmann\u003c\/i\u003e as an unintentionally ironic demonstration of this feature of human interaction. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough his careful examination of Arendt's portrait of Adolf Eichmann and the Jewish Central Councils as well as by considering \u003ci\u003eEichmann\u003c\/i\u003e in the context of Arendt's other work, Sharpe gives us a book that will be of great interest to scholars, students, and other researchers involved with contemporary political theory and Holocaust Studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barry Sharpe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0275964035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780275964030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.56h x 6.38w x 0.77d","brand":"Barry Sharpe","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48587614781695,"sku":"9780275964030","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/modesty-and-arrogance-in-judgment-barry-sharpe-9780275964030","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
