Descrição
Resumo:The article aims to situate the debate drawn within the theoretical field of Critical Theory between Axel Honneth and Nancy Fraser, in view of their main publications in the 1990s. Since the critical model formulated by Jürgen Habermas, Critical Theory has come to place a greater emphasis in the questions involving normative political theory, focusing on the new social movements that emerged after May 1968. In this sense, Honneth and Fraser present new contributions to this discussion, with a view to formulating new normative proposals. Thus, based on a qualitative bibliographic analysis of the proposed texts, we will focus the exposition on the concepts of recognition and redistribution in order to understand the importance of the main questions posed by the authors.
