<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In this volume Axel Honneth deepens and develops his highly influential theory of recognition, showing how it enables us both to rethink the concept of justice and to offer a compelling account of the relationship between social reproduction and individual identity formation.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Der Sozialphilosoph Axel Honneth erläutert in seinem neuen Buch seine Theorie der Anerkennung und zeigt, wie sich damit die Vorstellung von Gerechtigkeit neu ausrichten und die Beziehung zwischen sozialer Reproduktion und Entwicklung einer eigenen Identität untersuchen lässt.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'Axel Honneth's new book, The I in We, is both original and important. He continues here the critical theory project of exploring the relationship between sociological explanation and normative assessment, and he argues forcefully for the expansion of the notion of such explanation to include an account of the psychological conditions for relations of recognition and thereby social justice. This book is a major achievement, especially in Honneth's vigorous defense of his position against his critics.'<br /> Robert Pippin, University of Chicago</p><p>'This collection of unusually rich essays both fills in crucial details of Axel Honneth's theory of recognition and illuminates its historical roots in Hegel's 'The Phenomenology of Spirit' and 'Philosophy of Right'. Honneth is at his finest here, appropriating insights of past philosophers in ways that demonstrate their contemporary relevance for disciplines as diverse as social theory, political philosophy, and psychoanalysis.' <br /> Frederick Neuhouser, Barnard College, Columbia University</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Axel Honneth</b> is Professor of Philosophy at the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University, Frankfurt.
