Rethinking Hobbes and Kant (eBook, ePUB)

The Role and Consequences of Assumption in Political Theory

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Thomas Hobbes and Immanuel Kant have often been treated as representative thinkers for two schools and, whatever their views are taken to represent, they are usually considered as occupying opposite poles. While acknowledging these traditional juxtapositions of two of the central figures of political philosophy this book undertakes a detailed analysis and comparison of aspects of their political theories to show that they are much more similar than usually thought.
