Is it possible so to act? And how important is leading a free life? Robert Pippin argues that the core of Hegel's answers is a social theory of agency, the view that agency is not exclusively a matter of the self-relation and self-determination of an individual but requires the right sort of engagement with and recognition by others. Using a detailed analysis of key Hegelian texts, he develops this interpretation to reveal the bearing of Hegel's claims on many contemporary issues, including much-discussed core problems in the liberal democratic tradition. His important study will be valuable for all readers who are interested in Hegel's philosophy and in the modern problems of agency and freedom.EthicsAgent (Philosophy)Free will and determinismEthics.Agent (Philosophy)Free will and determinism.193Pippin Robert B.1948-304457UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910453207003321Hegel's practical philosophy1905587UNINA
