In five extended essays, contributors examine whether it is possible or even desirable to analyze political foundations without resorting to metaphysics or essentialist constructs by comparing the thought of Voegelin to that of other prominent twentieth-century theorists. After an introductory review on Husserl and Nietzsche, they compare Voegelin to Ricoeur, Levinas, Deleuze, and Patocka, and investigate whether Voegelin's political theory is an attempt to recapture the speech-dimension of human experience.
