Philosophy, Politics, Autonomy: Essays in Political Philosophy (Odeon)
"Excellent introduction to Castoriadis."--Manual M. Davenport, Texas A and M"The author writes with a broad scope of vision and, at the same time, a depth needed to compare the important ideas considered. The work is bound to generate discussion among students in at least two fields; philosophy and political thought."--Keith R. David, William Jewell College"The essays, most of them written during the past five years or so, show Castoriadis to be an extraordinarily wide-ranging social critic, prepared to grapple with some of the most complex and disturbing aspects of the late modern age....[T]hese essays are edifying reading."--Times Higher"I only wish I had read Cornelius Castoriadis before, and I recommend him strongly....Marvellously compelling."--Political Studies"Reading Castoriadis, is an urgent task.  I cannot hope adequately to convey the exhilaration that following his conceptual trails induces.  Here is a young and alert political philosopher."--J.J. Lecercle, Radical Philosophy"The strength of these essays - has been a passionate promotion of the modernist vision of a self-reflective and self-realizing society."--Philosophical Reviews
