The Unique and Its Property

Book •
In 'The Unique and Its Property', Max Stirner critiques societal institutions and moral concepts, advocating for individual self-assertion.

Stirner rejects all forms of external authority, whether it be the state, religion, or morality, arguing that they are 'spooks' that limit individual freedom.

He introduces the concept of 'ownness,' encouraging individuals to recognize and embrace their unique ego.

The book challenges readers to question their values and to pursue their self-interest without regard to societal norms.

Stirner's radical individualism has influenced anarchist, existentialist, and postmodernist thought, emphasizing the importance of the individual in a world of abstract ideas and collective identities.
