Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In 2012, philosopher and public intellectual Slavoj iek published what arguably is his magnum opus, the onethousandpage tome Less Than Nothing: Hegel and the Shadow of Dialectical Materialism. A sizable sequel appeared in 2014, Absolute Recoil: Towards a New Foundation of Dialectical Materialism. In these two books, iek returns to the German idealist G. W. F. Hegel in order to forge a new materialism for the twentyfirst century. ieks reinvention of Hegelian dialectics explores perennial and contemporary concerns: humanitys relations with nature, the place of human freedom, the limits of rationality, the roles of spirituality and religion, and the prospects for radical sociopolitical change.In A New German Idealism, Adrian Johnston offers a firstofitskind sustained critical response to Less Than Nothing and Absolute Recoil. Johnston, a leading authority on and interlocutor of iek, assesses the recent return to Hegel against the backdrop of Kantian and postKantian German idealism. He also presents alternate reconstructions of Hegels positions that differ in important respects from ieks version of dialectical materialism. In particular, Johnston criticizes ieks deviations from the secular naturalism and Enlightenment optimism of his chosen sources of inspiration: not only Hegel, but Karl Marx and Sigmund Freud too. In response, Johnston develops what he calls transcendental materialism, an antireductive and leftist materialism capable of preserving and advancing the core legacies of the Hegelian, Marxian, and Freudian traditions central to iek.
