A influência hegeliana do reconhecimento em Charles Taylor e Axel Honnet na contemporaneidade

Abstract

The present article intends to analyze the category recognition in the philosophies of Charles Taylor and Axel Honneth. The issue in question is relevant in contemporary times because of the existence of social groups, so-called minority entities that want more public spaces of discussion in order to have their rights recognized, effective. In this sense, it is necessary to insert in the discussion two current authors who deal with the subject recognition in their philosophical systems. It is not by chance that the guiding principle adopted in this writing is Hegel's juvenile writings in Iena. This is because the philosophy of this German author brings intersubjectivity as the central element in the present discussion. In other words, the speculative construction of this mediation leads to the realization of the idea of freedom and, consequently, the possible realization of the idea of community ethical life. At this point, the contemporary authors are approaching in this attempt to analyze the mediations of this type of recognition for today's society. Even so, they have some differences that the present argument intends to develop.
