This book develops an alternative account of the nature and sources of identity-based injustice in which the pursuit of recognition is part of the problem rather than the solution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinner of the Best First Book Award, Foundations of Political Theory Section of the American Political Science Association \"[Markell's] arguments are closely reasoned, provocative, and supported by clever, frequent reference to the theoretical literature and to historical and contemporary cases. The language is clear but technical, and though relatively jargon-free, requires that the reader actually think rather than simply 'read.'\"--Choice \"Patchen Markell calls us to be wary of the politics of recognition... Bound by Recognition transcends its object of critique. Markell's account of the persistence of the aspiration to sovereignty and its rage against the unscripted and undetermined quality of human relations tells of the way our search for justice is sometimes an effort to relieve us of the burden of our freedom.\"--Shalini Satkunanandan, Law, Culture and the Humanities\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*FrontMatter, pg. i*Contents, pg. ix*Acknowledgments, pg. xi*Introduction: The Problem of Recognition, pg. 1*Chapter 1.
