An Ethical Modernity?
Hegelâs Concept of Ethical Life Today
Series: - Critical Studies in German Idealism, Volume: 25
An Ethical Modernity? investigates the relation between Hegelâs doctrine of ethical life (Sittlichkeit) and modernity as a historical category and a philosophical concept. In this collection of essays, the authors analyze Hegelâs theory of ethical life from various perspectives: social ontology, social practices and beliefs, theory of judgment, relations between Hegelâs theory of ethical life and Kantâs ethics, Hegelâs philosophy of family, relation of the modern market to âEuropean valuesâ, the ethos of state and of international relations, and Hegelâs metaphilosophical commitment to philosophy. This volume is of importance to anyone interested in how Hegelâs practical philosophy relates to us and our times.
