Beyond Kantian Constructivism is the first attempt to put recent interpretations of Hegel into dialogue with the tradition of Kantian constructivism - an astonishing gap in the literature, which has now been filled by this important and timely collection, which effectively shows how Hegel's idealism provides the conceptual resources to respond to the conceptual dichotomies of Kantian constructivism. - Paolo Diego Bubbio, Associate Professor of Philosophy, Western Sydney University Hegel and contemporary practical Philosophy is an impressive collection of contributions by the best English-speaking scholars of Hegel. It shows how Hegel's practical philosophy clarifies the challenges at stake in contemporary discussions, for example between moral constructivism and realism , which are enlightened by the introduction of the volume. - Jean-Francois Kervegan, Professor of Philosophy, University of Paris James Gledhill and Sebastian Stein have produced a book that is not only a collection of excellent essays on Hegel and practical philosophy, but an excellent collection with a unifying focus on Kantian constructivism. It contains essays by prominent and by up-and-coming Hegel scholars, all of which are informed by relevant debates in analytic philosophy. It will henceforth be indispensable reading for anyone working on Hegel's practical philosophy. - Gordon Finlayson, Director, Centre of Social and Political Thought, University of Sussex
