Abstract
This paper introduces and addresses fresh perspectives in the engagement between Hegel and his postmodern critics and detractors. The first part of the paper examines some of the central discussions on postmodernity, specifically in the works of Lyotard and Habermas, and how they, in different ways, reengage Hegel. The second part focuses on Vattimo?s deployment of the concept of the postmodern credo as a way of returning to Hegel?s own interrogation of modern belief. The paper shows that the common thread linking the modernity of Hegel with the ?postmodern moment? remains belief, and in particular, belief in belief itself. The final part provides a brief introduction to all the contributions in this issue.
