Abstract

The Arendt Dilemma, one of the greatest dilemmas in contemporary ethics and education, is that we have abandoned almost everything, but meantime we cannot break away from some premise of the certainty at any time in our ethical life and moral education. This Arendt Dilemma is manifested not only in the subversion and struggle of traditional ethics in our personal life, but also in the question and confusion of traditional political identifications in our social life. The core root of this trouble can be summed up in the fact or feature of our society that the "dynamic society" has become the norm in this era. Understanding and dealing with this Arendt dilemma properly requires us to develop the comprehensive judgment rather than single judgment in ethical life, and construct rather than destroy the educational logic in the educational process.
