  • Hegel and Republicanism

    Non-Domination, Economics, and Political Participation

    by Christopher Yeomans ...
    Series series Elements in the Philosophy of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
    This Element is about the relationship between the political thought of the German philosopher G. W. F.

    Edited by Ansgar Lyssy, Christopher Yeomans ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    It was not so long ago that the dominant picture of Kant’s practical philosophy was formalistic, focusing almost exclusively on his Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals and Critique of Practical Reason. However, the overall picture of Kant’s wide-ranging philosophy has since been broadened and deepened. We now have a much more complete understanding of the range of Kant’s practical interests ...

  • The Expansion of Autonomy

    Hegel's Pluralistic Philosophy of Action

    by Christopher Yeomans ...
    Georg Lukács wrote that “there is autonomy and 'autonomy.' The one is a moment of life itself, the elevation of its richness and contradictory unity; the other is a rigidification, a barren self-seclusion, a self-imposed banishment from the dynamic overall connection.” Though Lukács' concern was with the conditions for the possibility of art, his distinction also serves as an apt description of ...

  • Freedom and Reflection

    Hegel and the Logic of Agency

    by Christopher Yeomans ...
    There are many insightful discussions of Hegel's practical philosophy that emphasize the uniqueness of his expressivist and social theory of agency, but few recognize that these two aspects of Hegel's theory of the will are insufficient to avoid the traditional problem of free will. In fact, the problem can easily be shown to recur in the very language used to express why Hegel's theory is a ... Read more

    by Raymond Geuss ...

But in Philosophy and Real Politics, Raymond Geuss argues that philosophers should first try to understand why real political actors behave as they actually do. Far from being applied ethics, politics is a skill that allows ... Read more
