Recognition Theory

Recognition Theory is a philosophical framework within social and political philosophy that identifies mutual acknowledgment of personhood and social standing as the foundational condition for individual identity and ethical relations, distinguishing it from related theories by its emphasis on intersubjective validation as a prerequisite for justice and autonomy.
