This collection of 13 new essays shows what Baruch Spinoza can add
to our understanding of the relational nature of autonomy. By
offering a relational understanding of the nature of individuals
centred on the role played by emotions, Spinoza offers not only
historical roots for contemporary debates but also broadens the
current discussion. At the same time, reading Spinoza as a theorist
of relational autonomy underscores the consistency of his overall
metaphysical, ethical and political project, which has been clouded
by the standard rationalist interpretation of his works.
