Description
Experts from various fields re-examine the concept of the subject as understood by influential thinkers such as Descartes, Kant and Hegel. Contemporary ideas that revive the subject are also considered, including queer theory and national identity.
The contributors to this collection include leading scholars in philosophy, psychology, anthropology and cultural studies, offering diverse perspectives on the subject. Their work challenges traditional notions of the self and its relationship to society.
