Axel Honneth and the Movement of Recognition: Structure of the Self and Second Nature (Deutsche Zeitschrift f?r Philosophie / Sonderb?nde, 46)

The author explores the thought of one of the most important contemporary philosophers, Axel Honneth, in his attempt to develop a critical theory of society and to develop a third way between liberalism and republicanism. At the heart of this attempt is the concept of recognition, which is explored in all its multiple dimensions in order to develop a new image of subject, society, and freedom.
