Rezensionen

"The essays are refreshingly free of complex jargon and,
taken together, offer a good sampling of recent work in Hegelian
moral and political philosophy. Summing Up:
Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through
researchers/faculty; general readers." (Choice,
1 October 2012)

This is a fine collection of highly engaging and accessible
scholarly essays on Hegel's Philosophy of Right. The essays
focus on ethics, politics, and law and highlight with great
originality the significance of Hegel's thought for
contemporary debates concerning value theory, Kantian formalism,
punishment theory, political organisation, gender equality,
standards of justice, and legal authority. Students and scholars
will learn much from this thought-provoking and very welcome
volume.
