Abstract
Hannah Arendt argues that after World War II, preparing for war is the continuation of politics by other means, and protest movements and violent uprisings are mere extensions of violence. Jean-Paul Sartre, on the other hand, maintains that revolutionary violence is in some situations justified when it is necessary for the removal of subhuman conditions of the oppressed in order to create a future that reaffirms humanity. In our recent past decades, uprising in the Middle East has given way to armed interventions justified under the Responsibility to Protect (RtoP). Are these uprisings mere extensions of violence or justified revolutionary violence? Is RtoP considered a continuation of politics or an extension of violence?
