Om denne bog

This book explores why and how Thomas  Hobbes - the 17th century founder of political science -- contributed to the modern marginalisation of ''friendship'', a concept that stood in the foreground of ancient moral and political thought  and that is  currently undergoing a revival. The study shows that Hobbes did not question the occurrence of friendship; rather, he rejected friendship as an explanatory and normative principle of peace and cooperation. Hobbes''s stance was influential because it captured the spirit of modernity- its individualism, nominalism, practical scepticism, and materialism. Hobbes''s legacy has a bearing on contemporary debates about civic, international and global friendship.
