point in western culture
Argues that, despite the widespread abuse and political
manipulation of the term 'evil', we cannot do without it
Concludes that if we use the concept of evil, we must acknowledge
its religious dimension

Comprised of classic and newly-commissioned papers from leading
theorists, this volume provides a wide-ranging critical
introduction to the thought of Jurgen Habermas.
Some contributions explore the relation between Habermas's
philosophy and the thought of major predecessors, including Kant,
Hegel, Marx and Heidegger. Others elucidate the political context
of Habermas's thinking, while a final section presents the
responses of leading German contemporaries to his work.
The result is a more rounded picture of Habermas's oeuvre and
achievement than has previously been available. Habermas emerges as
a thinker whose outstanding powers of renewal and innovation are
inseparable from his engagement with the major traditions of
European thought, and his own intellectual and political context.
