Thompson displays a mastery of the material and provides a sure-footed guide to the intricacies of the work of the main theorists of recognition – Axel Honneth, Nancy Fraser and Charles Taylor. This book will be required reading for those working on democratic inclusion, identity politics and equality, and serves as a first-rate contribution to the literature on social and political theory.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePaul Kelly, \u003ci\u003eLondon School of Economics and Political Science\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Introduction.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1. 1 The Rise of Recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1. 2 The Politics of Recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1. 3 Three Theories of Recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1. 4 A Plan of the Argument.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Recognition as Love.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2. 1 Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2. 2 Charles Taylor: The Dialogical Self.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2. 3 Axel Honneth: A Philosophical Anthropology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2. 4 Nancy Fraser: The Discursive Subject.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2. 5 The Critique of Psychologization.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2. 6 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Recognition as Respect.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3. 1 Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3. 2 Charles Taylor: The Politics of Universalism.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3. 3 Axel Honneth: Legal Recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3. 4 Nancy Fraser: Parity of Participation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3. 5 A Critical Comparison.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3. 6 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 Recognition as Esteem.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4. 1 Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4. 2 Charles Taylor: The Politics of Difference.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4. 3 Axel Honneth: The Principle of Achievement.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4. 4 Nancy Fraser: The Revaluation of Values.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4. 5 A Critical Comparison.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4. 6 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5 Recognition and Redistribution.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5. 1 Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5. 2 Nancy Fraser: Redistribution, Recognition and Participation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5. 3 Axel Honneth: Redistribution as Recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5. 4 A Critical Comparison.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5. 5 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e6 Recognition and Democracy.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6. 1 Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6. 2 Charles Taylor: Participatory Self-rule.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6. 3 Axel Honneth: Reflexive Cooperation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6. 4 Nancy Fraser: Radical Democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6. 5 A Critical Comparison.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6. 6 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e7 Struggles for Recognition.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7. 1 Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7. 2 Axel Honneth: Struggles for Recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7. 3 Criticisms of Honneth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7. 4 Conclusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e8 Conclusion.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Wiley and Sons Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49404358951255,"sku":"9780745627618","price":49.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780745627618.jpg?v=1730486211","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/political-theory-of-recognition-a-critical-introduction-9780745627618","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
