Hegel's Value

Autor Dean Moyar
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 mar 2021
Hegel's Philosophy of Right has long been recognized as the only systematic alternative to the dominant social contract tradition in modern political philosophy. Dean Moyar here takes on the difficult task of reading and representing Hegel's view of justice with the same kind of intuitive appeal that has made social contract theory, with its voluntary consent and assignment of rights and privileges, such an attractive model. Moyar argues that Hegelian justice depends on a proper understanding of Hegel's theory of value and on the model of life through which the overall conception of value, the Good, is operationalized.Closely examining key episodes in Phenomenology of Spirit and the entire Philosophy of Right, Moyar shows how Hegel develops his account of justice through an inferentialist method whereby the content of right unfolds into increasingly thick normative structures. He asserts that the theory of value that Hegel develops in tandem with the account of right relies on a productive unity of self-consciousness and life, of pure thinking and the natural drives. Moyar argues that Hegel's expressive account of the free will enables him to theorize rights not simply as abstract claims, but rather as realizations of value in social contexts of mutual recognition. Moyar shows that Hegel's account of justice is a living system of institutions centered on a close relation of the economic and political spheres and on an understanding of the law as developing through practices of public reason. Moyar defends Hegel's metaphysics of the State as an account of the sovereignty of the Good, and he shows why Hegel thought that philosophy needs to offer an account of world history and reformed religion to buttress the modern social order.

Recenzii

Moyar has succeeded in identifying a teleological theory of value that runs through Hegel's discussions of rights, contract, law, the family, and the state, one that avoids the pitfalls of both ideal theory and stark realism ... Moyar's book is lucidly written, engages a broad range of contemporary thinkers, and offers an insightful and original perspective on Hegel's political theory.
It is an incredibly well-researched, historically informed, and original contribution to the study of Hegel's practical philosophy and to political philosophy in general.
This is excellent and original work that both makes new and more specific use of a current strand of Hegel interpretation
This highly anticipated study offers an original perspective on Hegel's Philosophy of Right as a whole and answers many questions readers such as myself have had, i.e. how to situate Hegel's distinctive method inside the ideal-nonideal debate. It makes a compelling case for taking the concept of value as a unifying thread for systematically reconstructing Hegel's theory of justice. An exceptionally clear and deep piece of scholarship, it is sure to set the terms for future approaches to Hegel's political philosophy." -Andreja Novakovic, University of California at Berkeley
Dean Moyar intends to offer a full reconstruction of all of Hegel's Philosophy of Right. Most of his book is concerned with the 1820 published version, but he also takes into account the transcripts of the lectures Hegel gave afterwards on it until 1831. His book is thorough, learned, and clearly written. I myself was completely taken up in reading it. With so many new insights, it is a major statement in Hegel scholarship and in political theory more generally.
Moyar's Hegel's Value is essential reading for those interested in Hegel's Philosophy of Right and will be a cornerstone for generations of future scholars.
