Review:
Politics sours into the rarefied stratosphere of social theory, striving to realize the highest aspirations of modernity itself. Mr. Unger is thus best understood in relation to contemporaries who reach for similar heights, such as European thinkers Hans Blumenberg, Jurgen Habermas and Michel Foucault.
