Research
Buchwalter’s main research
interests are in social, political, and legal philosophy, with special
emphasis on the work and perspective of G.W.F. Hegel. Currently on leave
from his teaching and administrative duties, he is completing two books:
a monograph on Hegel’s political philosophy, which addresses Hegel’s
unique status as a theoretician of social and political modernity, with
particular reference to the manner in which his thought contributes
to elucidating issues of concern today; and a collection of authored
essays that compares and contrasts Hegel’s thought on diverse
topics with a range of other seminal thinkers. His current writing focuses
on two topics: globalization and the relationship of religion and politics.
