Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"For the past few decades Axel Honneth has been developing and defending the concept of recognition as the groundwork for a critical theory of society. In this collection of articles he extends his analysis of recognition in order to show how this informs social philosophy, moral theory, and political philosophy. Honneth has a knack for situating fundamental issues in historical perspective, outlining alternative strategies for dealing with them, and breaking new ground. This superb collection of essays is essential for anyone interested in recent developments in the scope and normative foundations of critical social theory." Richard J. Bernstein, New School for Social Research "This belated translation makes patent what many of us have suspected for a long time: Axel Honneth's recognition theory constitutes one of the most ambitious philosophical undertakings of our time. These sparkling essays work out its implications for major issues in social philosophy, moral philosophy, and political philosophy." Nancy Fraser, New School for Social Research

Reseña del editor:

In this new book Honneth develops an original account of 'disrespect' as the key moral experience on which a systematic critical theory of society can be built.
