About the Author

Rahel Jaeggi is a distinguished philosopher and professor of political philosophy at the Humboldt University of Berlin, where she explores the intersections of critical theory, ethics, and social structures. Her work delves into the philosophical underpinnings of contemporary society, particularly how alienation and recognition shape individual and collective experiences in modern life. Drawing from Frankfurt School traditions, Jaeggi critiques the pervasive influences of capitalism and neoliberalism, advocating for forms of social freedom that foster genuine autonomy. With a rigorous yet accessible approach, she bridges academic discourse and public debate, influencing discussions on justice, democracy, and human flourishing. Her seminal contributions continue to challenge and enrich philosophical inquiry into the human condition.
