As Hutchings demonstrates, this is an ambivalent legacy. Hegel figures both as an antagonistic ‘other’ and as a significant resource for feminist thinking from de Beauvoir onwards. Hegel's philosophy is antagonistic to feminism in so far as it denigrates the female or feminist subject, excluding women from both reason and history. His work provides a resource for feminist philosophy because his account of reason and history is fundamentally non-binary and can be drawn on in feminist philosophy’s attempts to escape the binary thinking of the philosophical tradition. Hutchings claims that feminist philosophy is characterized by patterns of thought which oscillate between accepting and overturning conceptual dualisms central to the philosophical tradition. She suggests that Hegelian elements within feminist thought provide the basis for a rethinking of feminist philosophy which escapes this either\/or choice and opens up new possibilities for feminism. This is demonstrated by showing how Hegelian modes of thinking help to resolve entrenched debates within feminist philosophy over sexual difference, ethical judgement and equality of right. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHegel and Feminist Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e will be of great interest to students and scholars of philosophy, women's studies and political theory\u003ci\u003e.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter One: Feminist Philosophy and the Way of Despair\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThinking as a Feminist.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeminist Re-thinkings of Reason and Truth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeminist Re-thinkings of Moral Agency and Judgement.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeminist Re-Thinkings of Politics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Two: Philosophy as the Task of Comprehension.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePhenomenology and Science.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOn Nature, History and Right.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeminist Readings of Hegel.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Three: Thinking the Second Sex.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAmbiguities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHow Has 'Woman' Come to Be?.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThinking Being as Life; Existence as Spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Four: Re-thinking the Second Sex.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAntigone's Story.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHegel's Antigone.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTowards a Hegelian Feminist Philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Five: Hegel and Feminist Ethics.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMoral Identity and an Ethics of Difference.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHegel, the 'Moral Point of View' and 'Ethical Life'.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter Six: Hegel and the Sexual Contract.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eModern Patriarchy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBeyond the Sexual Contract.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTowards a Hegelian Feminist Ethical Theory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eConclusion.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Philosophy [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Philosophy\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Philosophy%20%5BHP%5D%22\"\u003eHP\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Polity","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52406539321624,"sku":"9780745619514","price":49.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780745619514.jpg?v=1784139789","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/hegel-and-feminist-philosophy-hardback-9780745619514","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
