Abstract

The development of an alternative account of autonomy that points to the importance of recognition relations and originally problematizes the individualist bias of liberal accounts of autonomy is, by itself, a theoretical undertaking that justifies the translation of “Autonomy, Vulnerability, Recognition, and Justice” into Portuguese. This brief introduction, however, aims to pinpoint that the relevance of this paper goes beyond that, once it helps to clarify the position of its authors on important issues within contemporary political philosophy and critical theory.
