Критика на автономията
Critique of Autonomy

Summary/Abstract: This paper focuses on the genealogy of the concept autonomy, tracing its different conceptualizations from Rousseau, through Kant and Hegel, to the Frankfurt School. The emphasis is placed, on one hand, on the way autonomy and heteronomy are intertwined, and, on the other, on the role the concept second nature plays in the construction of autonomy. The analysis of the methods for differentiating the fi rst nature and the second nature demonstrates the existence of naturalism produced by ourselves, but also reveals the paradoxes this naturalism leads to in our present days.
