Recuperar el socialismo

Socialism is usually identified with the idea of ??equality. But, what if its distinctive key was to be found in the peculiarity of the concept of freedom that it defends? That is the risky thesis with which Axel Honneth proposes to recover socialism through a historical balance, a criticism of its deficiencies and a commitment to its future. Honneth's theses deserve discussion because, whether he agrees with them or not, they amaze for their penetration and for the horizons they open up. And that is the challenge facing those who write in this book. Out of sympathy with Honneth's project, they question aspects of his revision of the socialist tradition or his proposals for renewal, always with their sights set on placing socialism at the center of our political and intellectual agenda. Honneth picks up the baton and answers them, helping to make this book a model for serious but fraternal debate. Those who want to be serious socialists, who want to seriously debate socialism. will find an important stimulus in this work.
