| Abstract | "In the tradition of the great dialecticians, Rahel Jaeggi revitalizes the idea of progress by confronting its opposite: regression. Reckoning with growing inequality, ecological erosion, and assaults on critical thinking and reason itself, Jaeggi argues for a vision of progress capable of transcending difference and promoting universal welfare"-- Provided by publisher. |
