Previously considered two different strands within continental
thought, this book compares and contrasts Hegel's 'phenomenology'
and Foucault's 'genealogy', contending that in spite of their
differences, these approaches share important commonalities, most
notably in the manner in which they dispense with distinctions
between subject and object, theory and praxis, mind and body, and
reason and nature, thus pointing the way to a form of social and
political theorizing without presuppositions. Considering the
possibility of developing a dialectical approach of 'phenomenology'
and 'genealogy', this volume develops our understanding of critical
theory, whilst engaging in debates concerning truth and knowledge
in the philosophy of the social sciences. A rich exploration of the
significance and implications of Hegel's 'phenomenology' and
Foucault's 'genealogy' for the social sciences, it will be of
interest to philosophers, as well as to social and political
theorists.

This collection examines different themes and offers novel
interpretations of Hegel's political philosophy. Thus, it sheds new
light on what has been perhaps the most controversial area of
Hegelian scholarship. It includes eight essays by a group of
international scholars at different stages of their career. Its
distinctive contribution is that it explores both Hegel's early and
mature political philosophy. It includes a paper on Hegel's early
essay on "Natural Law", published in two instalments in 1802 and
1803, and the System of Ethical Life, also published in 1802-1803,
as well as papers on Hegel's Philosophy of Right (published in
1821). Two papers also discuss "The German Constitution", written
between 1798 and 1802. The volume comes as an addition to the
current debate that has been occasioned by the bicentenary of
Hegel's Philosophy of Right.
