The stages of its development will be shown—beginning from the intuitive reconstructions of empirically available social normativity up to the perspective of social criticism. Starting with Honneth’s self-criticism towards his own early methodological assumptions, I will indicate relevant factors that influenced the change in his methodological approach. Finally, I shall explain why the criticism formulated against the current stage of Honneth’s theory is mainly inadequate.polinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAxel Honnethnormative reconstructionmethodologymethodology of normative reconstructionstruggle for recognitionideologyArtykułhttps://doi.org/10.14746/fped.2017.6.2.15
