Beschreibung

The concept of recognition has moved to the forefront of philosophical research in recent decades, particularly in political and social philosophy but also related areas, including philosophy of race and gender, philosophy of mind and language, ethics and aesthetics. It is a concept with deep roots from at least Rousseau and Hegel to contemporary social theory.

In this outstanding volume, an international roster of contributors expands our perspective on recognition beyond the standard story, providing a thought-provoking reassessment of the concept and its history. Covering the fundamental figures and themes, while also going beyond them, the twenty-nine chapters explore the full scope of recognition in four sections:

* Aesthetic recognition, including chapters on Kant, Simmel, Murdoch, and the relationship between recognition, art, and film, including Boorman's Deliverance and the Dardenne brothers' Rosetta.
* Recognition in philosophy of mind and language, including chapters on mind-reading, psychoanalysis, the logic and language of recognition, and its relation to epistemic agency.
* The ethics of recognition, including chapters on Homer, Plato, classical yoga, F. Schlegel, Beauvoir, the Anthropocene, and recognition in the ethics of cognitive disability.
* The social and political philosophy of recognition, including chapters on property and gift-giving, Hegel's aftermath, slavery and liberation, colonialism, Arendt, and alterity.

With a lucid introduction by the editors detailing the standard story of recognition and what lies beyond, Recognition: Historical and Philosophical Perspectives provides an authoritative and multifaceted exploration of this fascinating concept, expanding its relevance considerably. It will be important reading for those in philosophy as well as related disciplines such as political theory, sociology, social psychology, and psychoanalysis.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'Since path-breaking work on the theme in the 1990's and early 2000's, recognition theory has developed into a major research approach, perhaps even paradigm, in philosophy and related disciplines. Certain limiting assumptions about recognition are widely associated with this approach-assumptions concerning the history of the idea, the legitimate areas of application of the approach, the paradigmatic structure of recognition-relations, and their possible relata. This superb collection of new essays shakes these associations and paves way for understanding recognition as having a much wider significance than often thought-universally human and perhaps even crossing the boundary between the human and the non-human. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the theme of recognition.' - Heikki Ikaeheimo, University of New South Wales, Australia 'Since path-breaking work on the theme in the 1990's and early 2000's, recognition theory has developed into a major research approach, perhaps even paradigm, in philosophy and related disciplines.
