American philosopher Ronald Dworkin remarked on Jürgen Habermas's significance, noting his fame as the world's most renowned living philosopher. In this comprehensive biography, Stefan Müller-Doohm draws on extensive research and conversations with contemporaries, including Habermas himself, to explore the life of this pivotal public intellectual. The narrative follows Habermas's political and philosophical awakening in West Germany and highlights his influential relationships with thinkers like Adorno and Horkheimer. Müller-Doohm illustrates how Habermas's intellectual journey was shaped by the unique opportunities of postwar Germany, characterized by regained freedom. His career transcends scholarly work; he actively engaged in public debates on pressing issues, from the Holocaust's significance to Europe's future, aiming to influence social and political life beyond academia. The biography expertly documents the evolution of Habermas's thought, from his early explorations of the public sphere to his later writings on communicative action, cosmopolitanism, and the postnational condition. Ultimately, it presents a vivid portrait of a thinker whose profound philosophical contributions are matched by his role as a critical voice, advocating for a society that fulfills its potential for freedom and justice for all.
