Abstract

Comments on self-deception, with some references to Plato, Hegel, and Heidegger. The discussion focuses in turn on self-deception in the past, the present, and the future.

Based on the tape recording of a presentation made by Alexandru Dragomir on 22 September 1987. I am grateful to Laura Pamfil for the work of transcribing this recording, and also those on which ‘Utter Metaphysical Banalities ’ and ‘Nations’ are based. (Gabriel Liiceanu)
