Editorial Reviews
Review
“”Kant, Critique and Politics not only shows the abiding relevance of Kant’s critical philosophy for contemporary debates in social and political theory, international relations and feminist theory, but also challenges the view that it is a foundationalist argument. It makes an illuminating contribution to the contemporary debate as well as to the understanding of the critical project..”
-Howard Caygill, author of “A Kant Dictionary, University of East Anglia
“Hutchings possesses a gift for distillation and is able to summarize complicated arguments succintly. Her own argument is compelling, carefully presented and sustained throughout the work. Hutchings should be read by anyone interested in contemporary social theory and the debt it owes to Kant.”
