- Title
Recognition and Honor: A Critique of Axel Honneth's and Charles Taylor's Histories of Recognition.
- Authors
Mark, D.Clifton
- Abstract
The article presents a critique of the theories of recognition by contemporary theorists Charles Taylor and Axel Honneth, structured on a three-phase historical narrative starting with the characteristic form of recognition in pre-modern hierarchical societies, honor. It introduces a conceptual framework for thinking about honor, in categorial recognition based on social category or group where individual belongs and comparative recognition where members are sorted on relative merits.
