Description
The Struggle for Recognition: The Moral Grammar of Social Conflicts by Axel Honneth
This book re-examines the concept of social conflicts, arguing that the 'struggle for recognition' should be at its core. Axel Honneth draws on the ideas of Hegel to develop a new understanding of social conflicts and their underlying moral dynamics.
Through a detailed analysis of social conflicts, Honneth seeks to uncover the underlying moral grammar that shapes our social relationships and institutions.
