| Summary: | In this paper, we discuss Robert B. Brandom’s reading of G. W. F. Hegel,
especially his later work, A Spirit of Trust: A Reading of Hegel’s
Phenomenology, in order to tackle the question of “trust” as the structure
of recognition. First, we reconstruct Brandom’s reading of Hegel’s
philosophy as a form of “social recognitive pragmatics” with a “historical
recollective account of conceptual content”, by which he aims at a
re-definition of practical normativity based upon trust. Then, we examine
his notion of trust as the ground for a future, post-modern society.
Finally, we point at some difficulties concerning Brandom’s notion of
post-modern age and examine the concept of trust as key to the modern
understanding of social bonds. |
