Hannah Arendt on Individuals - Dictionary of Arguments

Brocker I 363
Individual/Arendt: The modern individual is incapable of referring to its fellow human beings. On the one hand, it is active for itself, but on the other hand, it works for the "progress" of mankind. It is driving a "development" that makes the question of the welfare of the community seem obsolete.
