فلسفة الاعتراف : في دلالات المفهوم و راهنيته

Abstract EN

The present study investigates the philosophy of Recognition being one of the current issues in the contemporary social and political philosophy.

It traces the philosophical effect that contributed in the emersion and rooting of this concept; reviving, and enriching it through approaches set by philosophers of Frankfurt school and postmodern thinkers.

"Yurgen Habermas" and "Axel Honneth" are taken as a model in order to detect the current state of this approach and to which extent it is able to counter contemporary societies' issues.

Therefore, Habermas's approach was introduced on the issue of intersubjectivity and communication problems.

Then, the idea developed by Honneth about the struggle for recognition and his contribution in presenting new forms of recognition.

The study aims to reveal the importance of the concept of recognition and join it with a set of potential mechanisms that look forwards to solve contradictions and issues of the modern liberal state with the overlap of its components and the multiplicity of its working mechanisms.
