Abstract

CORONADO, Cecilia. Freedom as a Condition for Justice according to Axel Honneth. Rev. filos.open insight [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.15, pp.147-171. ISSN 2395-8936.  https://doi.org/10.23924/oi.v9n15a2018.pp147-171.263.

The aim of this paper is to claim that Axel Honneth's institutional theory of justice is an alternative to theories of justice focused on a negative or a positive account of freedom. For this purpose I shall analyze 1) Honneth's critic to the negative and positive account of freedom; 2) Honneth's own theory of social freedom and evaluate 3) the scope of his account in order to identify the limits of this model of justice.

Keywords : A. Honneth; negative freedom; positive freedom; social freedom; Theory of Justice.
