  Offers a reading of the work of Kierkegaard in relation to metaphysics and political theory. This title argues that the notion of the person that lies at the heart of the liberal tradition is derived from a Kantian and Cartesian metaphysic. It also offers an alternative metaphysical image of the person that is derived from the work of Kierkegaard.
