Despite the increasing popularity of Axel Honneth's recognition theory across philosophy and the social sciences, there is almost no philosophical literature on the relation between recognition and poverty from this perspective. In this paper, I am concerned with three questions related to such a reflection. Firstly, I will examine whether and how the recognition approach can contribute to the understanding of poverty. This involves both conceptual and empirical questions and targets the ability of the recognition approach to propose a valid theory of the social world. Secondly, I am interested in figuring out whether and how the recognition approach can help to understand what is wrong about poverty. This means asking about the normative or ethical competence of the recognition approach in regard to poverty. Thirdly, the recognition approach claims to transcend theory and research, but also affect the social and political practice. Then the question arises as to whether and how it can help to design or implement poverty reduction or poverty alleviation practices and policies. In discussing these three matters, I aim to show that the recognition approach can in fact be a valuable and important contribution to poverty research and poverty politics. ; (VLID)1680633

The article examined the dispute about the ideas between Aristotle and Plato as one of the cause of start of postmodern philosophy. Aristotle identified the idea (eidos) and form, which is cause of equating of the reality of the discourse and immanentization of being and apology of hedonism and the ambition of pleasure. The absence of a dialectical relationship between form and substance in the philosophy of Aristotle, and, in fact, the equation things and its form, that provides the degeneration of the original ideas in the simulacrum. Plato's opinion differed from the opinion of the opinion about the ideas of Aristotle. The idea determines the form of things, but not identical to it. The idea is transcendent, but not immanent of things. Aristotle's philosophy in its historical and philosophical deployment provided absence of truth, but not its being.
