Minor rubbing. Top page-edge heavily bumped. Good. Jürgen Habermas Stanford University Press Stanford [CA] 1994 orig.wrappers 23x15cm, x,194 pp, PAPERBACK. "This new book provides a concise and exceptionally clear introduction to Habermas's work, from his early writings on the public sphere to his most recent works on law and the state. Outhwaite examines all of Habermas's major works and steers a steady course through the many debates to which they have given rise.A major feature of the book is that it provides a detailed critical analysis of Habermas's most important work, The Theory of Communicative Action.

This book will quickly become established as an authoritative and up-to-date guide to Habermas's work" - Publisher's description.

Minor rubbing. VG. Political Philosophy Cornell University Press Ithaca [NY] 2000 orig.wrappers 23x15cm, xii,219 pp. "Do poststructuralist accounts of the self undermine the prospects for effective democratic politics?

The book begins by tracing the rise of modern and poststructural views of subjectivity and then critiques these views as they are represented in the writings of Habermas and Kristeva. Noelle McAfee argues that Habermas's theory of subjectivity is overly optimistic about the possibility for individuals to know their own interests and act autonomously.
