Over the last decade, Axel Honneth has established himself as one
of the leading social and political philosophers in the world
today. Rooted in the tradition of critical theory, his writings
have been central to the revitalization of critical theory and have
become increasingly influential. His theory of recognition has
gained worldwide attention and is seen by some as the principal
counterpart to Habermass theory of discourse ethics.
In this important new volume, Honneth pursues his path-breaking
work on recognition by exploring the moral experiences of
disrespect that underpin the conduct of social and political
critique. What we might conceive of as a striving for social
recognition initially appears in a negative form as the experience
of humiliation or disrespect. Honneth argues that disrespect
constitutes the systematic key to a comprehensive theory of
recognition that seeks to clarify the sense in which
institutionalized patterns of social recognition generate justified
demands on the way subjects treat each other.
This new book by one of the leading social and political
philosophers of our time will be of particular interest to students
and scholars in social and political theory and philosophy.
