Abstract

The most important task facing an individual is the work on their own identity – it is a manifestation of self-realization and freedom of a modern man. Recognition as an intersubjective relationship between people is a condition of our identity. A community based on recognition relationships is an alternative to a neo-liberal social concept. Intersubjective relationships of recognition are formed, according to Honneth, in three spheres: in the sphere of intimate relations (family, people that are close to us, significant others), in the sphere of law and in the sphere of economy. We have three areas then, in which, in relations with others, we build our identity: family, law and economy with labor market. In my opinion, social relations of recognition may become the goal of social change, which is a response to the contemporary crisis of practice and legitimacy.
