Abstract
James Tully's own work from An approach to political philosophy (1993) to Strange multiplicity (1995) to, most recently, the two volumes of Public philosophy in a new key (2008 and 2009) offers us both a reading of Michael Foucault that makes perspicuous his contribution to contemporary debates concerning recognition and an original elaboration and extension of that contribution. The author's concern in this chapter is, consequently, two-fold: to consider Tully's relationship to Foucault and to show how Tully's use of Foucault within his own work provides a distinctive approach to questions of recognition. The author takes up this task attending to two aspects of Tully's use of Foucault, first, as a critical mode of historical philosophy for approaching the topic of recognition and, second, as a basis for an agonistic account of struggles over recognition.
