In this significant contribution to Hegel scholarship, Robert
Williams develops the most comprehensive account to date of Hegel's
concept of recognition (Anerkennung). Fichte introduced the concept
of recognition as a presupposition of both Rousseau's social
contract and Kant's ethics. Williams shows that Hegel appropriated
the concept of recognition as the general pattern of his concept of
ethical life, breaking with natural law theory yet incorporating
the Aristotelian view that rights and virtues are possible only
within a certain kind of community. He explores Hegel's
intersubjective concept of spirit (Geist) as the product of
affirmative mutual recognition and his conception of recognition as
the right to have rights. Examining Hegel's Jena manuscripts, his
Philosophy of Right, the Phenomenology of Spirit, and other works,
Williams shows how the concept of recognition shapes and illumines
Hegel's understandings of crime and punishment, morality, the
family, the state, sovereignty, international relations, and war. A
concluding chapter on the reception and reworking of the concept of
recognition by contemporary thinkers including Derrida, Levinas,
and Deleuze demonstrates Hegel's continuing centrality to the
philosophical concerns of our age.
