Hegel's Social Ethics

Více o knize

In this elegant meditation on the ethics of reciprocal recognition, Molly Farneth journeys with Hegel into the enduring heart of democracy in the making. While respecting Hegel's distinction between representational thinking and fully liberated dialectic, which is roughly the distinction between religion and philosophy, she finds matter there, not for yet another domineering form of pseudorationality, but a self-emptying reason, where we have room to enter into one another's keeping and become reconciled. In these precarious times for democracy, Farneth's generously reasoned grassroots religiosity is especially welcome.--James Wetzel, Villanova University
