Hegel and the end of the end of grand narratives
Lyotard?s The Postmodern Condition: A Report on Knowledge (1984) announces the end of grand narratives and the advent of postmodernity. The two go together. Moreover, they both involve the renunciation of Hegel and his philosophy. Hegel is condemned as the arch-exponent of grand narratives, framing a speculative theory that effaces difference and creativity in the interests of an overweening closed system. The popularity of postmodernism waned by…
The Politics of Recognition
Hobbes and Hegel are standardly taken to be contrasting political theorists, who maintain contrasting views on philosophy, individualism, and society. However, Oakeshott’s reading of Hobbes is a reminder that Hobbes can be read in ways that reduce antagonisms between Hobbes and Hegel. Hobbes’s state of nature is an artificial device that is internally related to the significance of political artifice in rendering the social world a reasonable con…
Plato and Hegel (RLE: Plato): Two Modes of Philosophizing about Politics
Hegel and Plato are united as political theorists by the convergence of their philosophical aspirations. But their political writings manifest the general disparities involved in their particular ways of seeking to fulfil these aspirations. Professor Browning compares the political thought of Plato and Hegel by locating their political theorizing within the context of their divergent modes of philosophizing.

A globalist ideology of post‐Marxism? Hardt and Negri's Empire
Hardt and Negri interpret contemporary sovereignty and politics in the light of a theory of contemporary globalization that is taken to supersede Marxism and former ideological standpoints of the Left. In particular, Hardt and Negri highlight how their reading of empire and multitude breaks with the teleology of Marxism and accepts the openness of events. They advertise the novelty, which is held to consist in their recognition of a thoroughly so…

Lyotard and Hegel: What is wrong with modernity and what is right with the philosophy of right
Lyotard's critique of Hegel is shown to be problematic. It purports to show that Hegel's philosophical absolutism is a dated example of modern absolutist social theory, but it succumbs itself to univocalism in its reading of Hegel. While Hegel's absolutist rhetoric disguises the contestability of his theorising, his subtle, nuanced reading of modernity and social theory offers a more constructive and powerful approach to the continuing problems o…

Lyotard: After and with Marx, within and against capital
This article examines Lyotard's thought by means of a review of his conceptions of Marx and capital. Lyotard is taken to hold ambiguous views on both Marx and capital throughout his career. These ambiguities reflect his development of a post-Marxist standpoint. The ambiguous character of Lyotard's reading of Marx and capital is heightened by the fact that the ways in which they are formulated vary in the course of his career. In criticizing Marx,…
"Crypto-Mormons or Pseudo-Mormons? "Latter-Day Saints and Russia's Indigenous New Religious Movements
Latter-day Saints and Russia's Indigenous New Religious Movements In 1990, when The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints established its first mission in Russia, Mormon1 missionaries almost immediately began hearing and passing on stories from native Russians about long-established communities already there (Browning 1997). Whole tribes of native Siberians call themselves Mormons. Many people in villages around Orenburg and Samara are but …

Hegel's Plato: The Owl of Minerva and a Fading Political Tradition
The strengths and weaknesses of Hegel's interpretation of Plato's political philosophy are shown to derive from Hegel's own philosophical premisses, namely the progressive, historical development of freedom and the dependence of political philosophy upon an actual political tradition. Hegel's historicism is seen as enabling him to recognize the Republic's reflection of traditional practice in the priority it assigns to the ideals of social harmon…
