The connection between freedom and action

The connection between freedom and action is crucial to Arendt’s response to issues of authority and freedom in the modern world. She formulates a connection between action and the religious idea of “miracle” in discussing institutions that support and enhance human freedom. She is concerned with miracles that “are clearly not supernatural events but only what all miracles, those performed by humans no less than those performed by a divine agent, always must be, namely, interruptions of some natural series of event, of some automatic process, in whose context they constitute the wholly unexpected.” Discuss Arendt’s understanding of freedom in the political sphere as a “miracle” in this sense. How does this active model of freedom respond to the issues concerning freedom and authority she raises?
