Description: The book argues that the center of political modernity is determined by a conflictive relation between the liberal core concept of political equality and the idea of individuality.
Review Quotes: "Reflections of Equality comes at a timely moment. There is an enormous appetite for material on equality and a dissatisfaction with the state of the discussion. This highly informed book, written from a continental perspective, makes the current dilemma about the role of equality in political thought all the more striking. Menke is one of the best of the newer generation of German philosophers." --Terry Pinkard, Georgetown University
