A reading of Hegel 's "Philosophy of Right". ... "From Logic to Politics" is a study of a promise: the promise of philosophy as universal science that could comprehend, connect and guide, and of politics made transparent for thinking.

"Европа. Истории за империи" обединява философия и история в ново изследване върху властта и имперската история на Европа. Водещата идея е, че в основата на индивидуалния политически опит лежи метафизическият и това се разкрива в множество свидетелства в историческата литература.

Тя снема старите представи за морал и показва света в напълно нова светлина, която изправя всички пред избор за това кои са в действителност и какво искат да бъдат. Отговорът на този въпрос, превърнат в безкрайна редица ... |
