The Inhumanity of Right

Más información sobre el libro

The critique delves into the philosophical underpinnings of individual rights, tracing its origins to a naturalistic view of humanity that lacks differentiation. Yannaras argues that this abstract conception of the individual has shaped modern political theory since Hegel, yet remains largely unexamined. He connects this concept to the current crisis in modern socio-political structures, suggesting that understanding these foundations is crucial. A new preface highlights the relevance of Yannaras' insights for contemporary Anglophone audiences.
