As for the characteristics of Hannah Arendt's view of citizenship,there are four——being action-oriented,spatiality,being political and being ideal. Being action-oriented means that citizens actively participate in politics; spatiality means that citizens need space,i. e.,public domain,where citizens take actions; being political means that citizens are the subject of politics,and the value of politics is to safeguard the freedom of citizens; being ideal means that Hannah Arendt's view of citizenship is universal. The active participation advocated by Hannah Arendt has important implication on the democracy construction at the grassroots level of cities in China.展开更多
