Das Problem der Tradition

Steffen Kluck undertakes a serious inspection of tradition as a phenomenon. What does it mean to experience a tradition? What is a tradition? How does it differ from habit or compulsion? Moreover, since traditions seem to have relevant connotations in contemporary socio-political discourses, an elucidation of what they are is not merely a theoretical problem. Rather, relevant practical consequences arise from these philosophical reflections.I. Exposition
