Read carefully the thoughts of Hannah Arendt :
I. There are 3 levels of human activities - Labour, Work and Action.
II. Most people are living at the level of labour and work and their capacity of action is being frustrated.
III. Political freedom is disappearing due to the weakening of the power of action.
Which of the above statements are correct ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
All three statements (I, II and III) are correct. In The Human Condition, Arendt divides human activity into labour, work and action. Because action in the public realm is the locus of political freedom, reducing human life to labour and work frustrates the capacity for action and causes political freedom to disappear.
